DescriptionNalmefene, a 6-methylene analogue of [naltrexone], is an opioid receptor antagonist.[L40684] It acts as an antagonist at the mu (μ)-opioid and delta (δ)-opioid receptors and a partial agonist at the kappa (κ)-opioid receptor.[L1024] In Europe, nalmefene oral tablets are used to reduce alcohol consum...
