Recovery from opioid or alcohol addiction isn't a failure of willpower. It's a neurological challenge: your brain has learned to crave the reward that substance use provides. Naltrexone (Vivitrol) addresses this directly by blocking the opioid receptors in your brain, stopping that reward signal before it reinforces relapse. For Mission Viejo residents, accessing this evidence-based medication is particularly important given Orange County's ongoing struggle with opioid use and the documented shortage of medication-assisted treatment providers in many parts of the region.
Compass Recovery's Naltrexone program is located in nearby Cypress, making specialized care accessible to Mission Viejo. We combine Naltrexone with individual counseling, group therapy, dual diagnosis assessment, and our Purpose Discovery Program to address the whole person behind the addiction. Unlike Suboxone, Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist rather than an agonist, requires no gradual tapering, carries no physical dependence risk, and is one of only a few FDA-approved medications effective for both opioid and alcohol use disorder.
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.
Mission Viejo's strong professional community - including healthcare workers, educators, and public servants - values medication-free recovery options that don't involve controlled substances. Naltrexone fits perfectly with this preference: it's non-addictive, requires no daily monitoring through prescription controls, and lets professionals maintain their careers and licenses without complications. Compass Recovery's Naltrexone program in nearby Cypress delivers exactly what Mission Viejo residents need: straightforward, effective treatment that keeps your life moving forward.
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.
