Naltrexone
alcohol dependence
"I'm only on day 4 but I am in total awe with this medicine. I am in my early 30's  and have a 40 beer a week habit. Worried for my future health I talked to my doc who suggested this. I started with a half dose the first two days in the morning. On my way home the first day I picked up a six pack as usual. I took my first drink and was almost freaked out! The beer tasted almost foreign to me. I never would have guessed so much of the taste was my brain's instant reaction to the alcohol. My cravings are nearly all gone and can easily drink one beer and be done. This makes quitting so easy it almost feel like cheating."
