Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist that works by blocking the effects of opioids in the brain, thereby reducing cravings and the pleasurable effects of these substances. It is commonly used in the treatment of opioid use disorder and alcohol dependence. By binding to opioid receptors, naltrexone helps prevent relapse in individuals who are in recovery from these addictions.
