Naltrexone is a prescription medication that clinicians may discuss with adults who want to drink less or stop. It is FDA-approved for alcohol use disorder and is not a controlled substance.
How it is reviewed
A licensed clinician decides whether naltrexone is appropriate for a specific person. That review may consider current medications, opioid use, liver history, pregnancy status, and other safety factors. This page is general education and does not replace individual medical advice.
What it can and cannot promise
Naltrexone may be one option in a broader care plan. No medication works the same way for everyone, and a prescription is never guaranteed.
