Abstract | Naltrexone is of proven efficacy as a treatment modality in the relapse preventive programme of opiate abusers. It complements the other interventions such as individual counselling, family therapy and self-help groups.

Naltrexone has no intrinsic opiate activity and has no resale value in the black market unlike methadone. |
