Naltrexone - Bluidkiti's Alcohol and Drug Addictions Recovery Help/Support Forums

Has anyone had any success with Naltrexone? If so, what is your daily dose. I started at 50mg, but it wasn't really helping so my doctor upped it to 100mg a day and that seems to help. Apparently, as per my doctor you can go up to 150mg per day, and then taper down gradually as needed.

Thoughts?

I was on Naltrexone in pill form and it worked ok when I remembered to take them. I did drink on it one time and my body felt the effects of the whiskey but my mind stayed clear. It did what it was supposed to do, blocked the receptors in my brain.
Doc suggested the shots that I came in once a month for. I was on it for a bit over a year and I did stay sober. I have stayed sober now for a little over 5 1/2 years this run. The Naltrexone did help me.
