Naltrexone - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Atlanta, GA.

Naltrexone is a prescription med used in the treatment of opiate and prescription opioid addiction because it stops the activity of opiates. It is also used in the management of alcohol dependence as it apparently lessens the addict's need to consume alcohol. Naltrexone can either be administered daily by tablet, or in injection form that can be given once an every four weeks, although the injection can cost around $1,100 per month.

The difference between Naltrexone and other meds used to treat opiate dependence is that unlike Methadone which is an agonist and has many of the same properties as heroin, Naltrexone is an opiate antagonist, and negates the effects of opioid medications. Someone who has been abstaining from all opioid medications for 7-10 days can begin taking Naltrexone, but they will have to remain off all other opioid medications while taking the drug. This would include taking Methadone or similar maintenance therapy drugs, due to the fact that taking Naltrexone along with these kinds of drugs can cause sudden withdrawal reactions.

Naltrexone is meant to be used along with a full Atlanta rehab program which would include compliance monitoring, counseling, lifestyle changes, and behavior modification.
