"An antagonist is a drug that blocks opioids by attaching to the opioid receptors without activating them. Antagonists cause no opioid effect and block full agonist opioids. Examples are naltrexone and naloxone."
Naloxone is a drug used to counter the effects of opiate overdose, for example morphine overdose.

I would say it’s false. It’s antagonistic.

Low dose naltrexone (LDN) has been implicated to help with cancer, HIV/AIDS, autoimmune diseases, and much more. Now it has been shown to have a potent antitumor effect on human ovarian cancer in both tissue culture and in animal xenografts. Naltrexone (NTX) is a general oioid receptor antagonist that results in compensatory elevation in endogenous oioids and opioid receptors. It has a powerful inhibition of cell lproliferation. Studies showed that LDN could also increase the effects of chemotherapy for ovarian cancer

I don’t want no stupid comments like why get high and its not for that. Unless your an addict don’t judge me!!! If you know the answer please tell me…..

Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist meaning it BLOCKS the effects of opioid agonists like morphine, Heroin, oxycodone, hydromorphone, and buprenorphine. However technically buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist. The opioid in Suboxone that can cause someone to feel "high" is buprenorphine. Suboxone also contains naloxone, an opioid antagonist like naltrexone. This is done, in part, because if Suboxone is injected the naloxone will block the euphoric effects.

Taking naltrexone does not cause any euphoria and if you have been taking opioids, especially if you are currently physically dependent to opioids then taking naltrexone can precipitate withdrawal far worse than normal opioid withdrawal.

The reason drugs like buprenorphine, morphine, and oxycodone can euphoria is because they activate the opioid receptor. Although naltrexone binds to the same receptors it does not produce any effect (it does not active the receptor, it just sits there and prevents other opioids from binding). Naltrexone is not a controlled substance and it is actually FDA approved for the treatment of opioid addiction.

Many of NIDA’s top grantees studying the link between substance abuse and HIV/AIDS were interviewed at the International AIDS Society conference in Vienna, Austria in July 2010. Hear Dr. Charles O’Brien discuss his research into addiction and HIV/AIDS.
