New hope for alcohol dependence and opiate addiction.

Naltrexone is one of the first anti-craving medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the treatment of alcoholism and opiate addiction.

Naltrexone comes in two forms:

1) Vivirol®-an injectable time released form of naltrexone that is taken once a month. Click to visit Vivitrol's website for more information.
2) ReVia© or naltrexone- taken daily in pill form.

Here are some of the many benefits of naltrexone in the treatment of drug and alcohol dependence:

• Most patients experience dramatic reductions in craving within hours of taking the first dose.
• Naltrexone blocks the "high" of alcohol and narcotics, reducing the incentive to drink or use drugs and significantly increasing treatment success.
• Naltrexone is a non-habit forming medication that can be discontinued at any time.
• Naltrexone can be given with other medications, especially those used to treat depression and other such psychiatric conditions.
• Naltrexone works best when used in combination with relapse-prevention therapies.
