Ginge,
Read that you are on Naltrexone AND Campral. Would like to hear from you -or anyone - on either or both of these drugs.
Do they work? Even if they stop the "cravings" how much can you control your mind that says, "I can drink."
Are they covered by medical insurance? Are they expensive? Hard to get?
Any information at all, please.
Hi G,
Yes the Naltrexone and Campral work good for me,I am in Australia so both of these are covered by our govt medicare scheme, I pay 28.50 per script and thats 2 mths worth of Naltrexone an 1 mth of Campral.
I dont get cravings now, the first 2 weeks I dont no if they where cravings or just in my head that I wanted a drink!
I am now up to my 8th week of no alcohol, so I have gone from drinking up to 6 doz stubbies per week plus going to the hotel at every possible chance, to having no alachol whatsoever, and belive me I couldnt do it without the medication,
Also it helps to have some sort of counslling with these I have my Doc plus I go to a counsller at the local hospital, I really need to get to a meeting as well,
Take care ,Good Luck,
