What is Naltrexone Prescribed For? How Does Naltrexone Work? What to Expect

Naltrexone is a medication approved by the FDA for the treatment of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). It is also used off-label to aid weight loss by reducing cravings and compulsive eating behaviors.

Naltrexone binds and blocks opioid receptors, reducing the euphoric and sedative effects of opioids, which helps suppress cravings. For weight loss, it helps reduce appetite and regulate metabolic functions, leading to decreased food intake and weight reduction.

When starting naltrexone, expect a reduction in cravings and compulsive eating. It may improve mood and sleep patterns, contributing to weight loss. Some side effects like nausea, dizziness, or headaches may occur but often subside as the body adjusts to the medication.
