For many people in Irvine working toward opioid or alcohol recovery, relapse isn't about willpower—it's about neurology. Naltrexone (Vivitrol) works directly on this level, blocking the reward response in your brain that reinforces substance use. Orange County has faced significant challenges with opioid misuse and alcohol dependency, making access to evidence-based medication treatment especially critical for residents seeking real neurobiological support for their recovery.
Compass Recovery's Naltrexone program is conveniently located in nearby Cypress, combining this non-addictive medication with individual counseling, group therapy, dual diagnosis care, and our Purpose Discovery Program. Unlike Suboxone, Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist that requires no tapering and carries no physical dependence risk. It's one of the few FDA-approved medications effective for both opioid and alcohol use disorders, giving you a unique path forward in your recovery.
Naltrexone is FDA-approved for opioid and alcohol use disorder. It is particularly well-suited for clients where several of these apply.
Naltrexone is available as a daily oral tablet (Revia) or a monthly extended-release injection (Vivitrol). Both block opioid and alcohol reward. Our clinical team determines which form is the right fit based on your history, lifestyle, and treatment goals.
A daily 50mg tablet that maintains a consistent opioid and alcohol block. Effective and lower cost, but depends on daily adherence — which can become a vulnerability during high-stress or high-craving periods.
A once-monthly intramuscular injection that provides continuous naltrexone coverage without daily pill decisions. Removes the daily adherence barrier — the most common reason oral naltrexone fails — and is particularly effective during the highest-risk relapse windows after discharge.
Irvine's large community of healthcare professionals, legal experts, and law enforcement officers often prefer naltrexone because it's a non-controlled medication that won't complicate their careers or security clearances. At Compass Recovery in nearby Cypress, we understand why this matters to you. Our naltrexone program gives you effective opioid addiction treatment without the regulatory baggage that comes with other options, so you can focus on recovery without worrying about your professional standing.
Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist — it blocks receptors rather than activating them. No physical dependence, no withdrawal on discontinuation, no controlled substance classification. It cannot be misused.
One of the few FDA-approved medications effective for both opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder. A single treatment option for clients with complex or dual substance histories.
Naltrexone is prescribed and monitored by our licensed clinical team. Both oral and Vivitrol injection forms are available, with dosing and form determined by your clinical profile.
Depression, anxiety, PTSD, and trauma frequently co-occur with opioid and alcohol use disorder. Our team treats both simultaneously — not as separate referrals at a later stage.
Our signature program helps every client identify their life purpose and build a future they genuinely want — giving recovery a compelling reason that medication and willpower alone cannot provide.
