One of the outpatient rehabilitation options for people in Mindoro who are battling with opioid dependence and addiction is opioid maintenance therapy. Licensed centers and doctors are certified to administer certain meds to opioid addicted people, many of which are opioids themselves and are habit forming. In low amounts however, the user does not feel high but also does not experience intense cravings and isn't experiencing opioid withdrawal. Methadone is the first drug administered for this reason, but there are a few more choices to choose from.
Methadone is an opiate and can be taken at an outpatient medical center certified to administer the med, that is taken on a daily basis in liquid or pill form. The price of the drug is about under $200 per month. Buprenorphine is also an opioid-based med, and is in pill form often taken one day on, one day off. But unlike Methadone which can only be given in well-regulated medical centers, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and administered in doctor's offices. The price monthly of buprenorphine is about three hundred dollars /month for the generic of the med. There is also a version of buprenorphine that contains naloxone, that is a drug that blocks the effects of opiates. An individual taking this version of the drug, also known as Suboxone, would find it more difficult to feel high from opioids if they relapsed while taking the drug. It is also taken every day, and is priced around $450 monthly. Naltrexone is an additional med used in opioid maintenance therapy, but unlike the other medications aforementioned it is an opioid blocker and is not an opiate. A person has the choice to take this medication as a monthly injection, and that is called Vivitrol. As an opioid blocker, it prevents someone from experience being high from opioids, and in turn lowers the risk associated with relapse. This daily shot costs anywhere from $1000 to $1200 a month.
