Naltrexone is classified as an opioid antagonist. Naltrexone blocks opiate drugs from binding to the opioid receptors, which can result in increased endorphin and enkephalin release. This causes a biological response that results in reduced signaling and release of inflammatory substances, nerve cell inflammation and autoimmune mediators. LDN has been studied across a wide variety of autoimmune conditions and cancer diagnosis.
