Clinical records of eighteen patients on Naltrexone and 13 patients who dropped out of a Naltrexone maintenance activity were studied at random to delineate the biopsychosocial characteristics of greater clinical relevance to an outpatient rehabilitation program. Their similarities and differences were described. Some hypothesis that may prove to be great clinical benefit were presented. A striking finding was the greater capacity of the Naltrexone group to have a stable marital relationship (P less than 0.01) as compared with the group who abandoned treatment.
