Naltrexon is an longterm opioid antagonist, which can be used in the psychosocial rehabilitation process of former dependents on opiates. It was established that there were less opiates used during the treatment with Naltrexon. The exclusive delivery of Naltrexon cannot protect from relapse and has to be completed with psychotherapeutic measures.
