                            Cyclic tetrapeptides that are kappa opioid receptor (KOR) antagonists can be used in therapeutic applications for treating, inhibiting, and/or preventing drug addiction, drug use, or drug seeking behavior in a subject. This can include subjects that have a history of drug addiction. The drug can be selected from cocaine, alcohol, amphetamines, methamphetamines, nicotine, opiate, or combinations thereof. These cyclic tetrapeptides can also be useful for treating, inhibiting, and/or preventing stress-induced drug seeking behavior.
