Naltrexone is a non-controlled medicine that can help people who are already off opioids stay off them. Timing matters a great deal. You need to be completely opioid-free for 7 to 10 days first, because starting sooner can cause severe withdrawal. Naltrexone also relies on a recent liver blood test that you provide, since the physician cannot order labs through this visit. This lane never prescribes buprenorphine, methadone, or any controlled medicine.

如果治疗合适,医生可以将非管制药物处方发送到您的药房,并通过门户网站向您提供说明。

Why do I need to be opioid-free for 7 to 10 days first?

Starting naltrexone while opioids are still in your system can bring on severe withdrawal. Being completely opioid-free for 7 to 10 days first helps the medicine be started safely.

Does this visit prescribe buprenorphine or methadone?

No. This lane offers only naltrexone, which is not a controlled medicine. It never prescribes buprenorphine, methadone, or any controlled medicine. A request for one of those is directed to in-person care.

Why is a recent liver blood test needed?

Naltrexone is processed by the liver, so a recent liver blood test helps confirm it is a safe choice. The physician cannot order labs through this visit, so you would provide recent results.

What if I am in withdrawal or feel unsafe?

If you have signs of an opioid overdose, please call 911. If you are in severe withdrawal or have used an opioid within the last 7 to 10 days, this lane is not the right fit yet. If you are having thoughts of self-harm, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available any time.
