One of the outpatient rehabilitation alternatives for clients in Diggs who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is called opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain medications to opioid dependent people, many that are opioid-based themselves and are addiction. In low enough doses however, the user doesn't feel high but also does not experience severe cravings and is not experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first medication tried for this purpose, but there are other options currently to choose from.
Methadone is an opioid and is meant to be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, which is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The cost of the med is approximately $150 a month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid based drug, and is a pill often taken every other day. But different from Methadone which is only be dispensed in structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is around three hundred dollars monthly for the generic of the med. There is also a type of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, which is a med that reverses the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it harder to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken on a daily basis, and is priced approximately $450 per month. Naltrexone is an additional drug used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other drugs mentioned it's an opioid blocker and is not an opioid. There is an option to take this drug as a monthly shot, which is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents an individual from experience being high from opioids, and therefore lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily injection costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 per month.
