Naltrexone is an
opioid receptor antagonist used primarily in the management of alcohol
dependence and
opioid dependence. It is marketed in generic form as its
hydrochloride salt, naltrexone hydrochloride, and marketed under the trade names Revia and Depade. In some countries, an extended-release formulation is marketed under the trade name Vivitrol. It should not be confused with
naloxone, which is used in emergency cases of
overdose rather than for longer term dependence control.
