I started taking 50mg of naltrexone last week - July 18 to be exact. My sobriety date is July 9 and by the time I was prescribed the naltrexone, my cravings were already much weaker. I attribute that to attending AA daily.
I thought that maybe the naltrexone disrupted my sleep the first night I took it, but the next night I took the 50mg and slept normally. I forgot to take it Friday night with no ill effects, no cravings the next day. So far, I have not noticed any side effects. I see my psychiatrist this Thursday for a followup.
