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 comes in tablet form, or in injection form that can be administered once per month, although the injection can cost around $1,100 a month.
The difference between Naltrexone and other drugs used to treat opiate dependence is that unlike Methadone which is an agonist and is very similar to heroin, Naltrexone is an opiate antagonist, and negates the effects of opioid medications. An individual who has been abstaining from all opioid meds for 7-10 days can begin taking Naltrexone, but they will have to stop taking all other opioid drugs while taking the drug. This would include taking Methadone or similar maintenance therapy drugs, due to the fact that taking Naltrexone along with these types of drugs can cause sudden withdrawal reactions.
Naltrexone is meant to be used along with a comprehensive Indiahoma treatment program which would include compliance monitoring, counseling, lifestyle changes, and behavior modification.
