ReVia medication is a prescription-based drug recommended under severe conditions suffered by patients due to their drug or alcohol addiction. It is powerful because it binds the endorphin receptors in the human body and blocks the effects and feelings of alcohol. It is one of the top medications recommended by doctors to stop the cravings for drugs and alcohol by patients. However, it has little or no effect on the alcohol that has already been consumed by a person. It is best for treating patients who have stopped drinking and wish to get rid of their addiction. It is effective because once the person stops taking drugs or alcohol the medication helps them to remain sober. ReVia which is one of the brand names of Naltrexone is taken under the watchful eyes of the doctor as if is abused then the symptoms can be life-threatening.
While blocking the effects and feelings of drug and alcohol consumption your doctor will first ascertain your medical history and may ask you to take a few clinical tests. It successfully blocks the effects of Opioid medicines and certain drugs may not go well with it as your doctor will suggest to you.
Things to Note before taking ReVia
Firstly, ReVia is not a permanent cure for alcohol or drug abuse as when the medication is stopped you may yet again start consuming alcohol or drugs. If you suffer from liver problems like liver failure or active hepatitis you shouldn’t take the drug. High doses of the medicine may harm your liver further. You will suffer from stomach pain, vomiting, dark urine, yellowing of skin or eyes, etc. In such cases, your doctor will not recommend revia tablets as they may do more harm than good to your health.
You cannot take the drug if you have an allergy to it as your doctor will find out. Some drugs will not go well with the medication and if you have kidney disease, or you are pregnant you cannot take the drug. It will harm the child who will experience withdrawal symptoms the moment it is born and is life threatening. The same is the case if you breastfeed your child.
You should take the correct dose as per your doctor’s recommendations and never try to use it casually. If you miss a dose you shouldn’t take another dose as it may lead to an overdose and the symptoms can be life-threatening. It is usually taken along with food and you should drink a full glass of water after that.
You need to store the medicine at room temperature away from heat and moisture.
