Revia (naltrexone)
Indications
- Revia is used as part of a comprehensive treatment program for alcohol dependence. It helps to reduce the craving for alcohol and decrease the desire to drink.
- It is also used to prevent relapse in individuals who have stopped using opioids and are free from withdrawal symptoms.

- Swallow the tablets whole with a full glass of water.
- Take the medication with or without food.

- Avoid skipping doses.
- Do not take more than the prescribed dose to prevent potential side effects or overdose.
Mechanism of Action
Revia (Naltrexone) is an opioid antagonist that works by blocking the effects of opioids and alcohol in the brain. It binds to opioid receptors and prevents them from being activated, thereby reducing the rewarding effects of these substances. By blocking opioid receptors, Revia helps to decrease the craving for alcohol and opioid drugs, supporting recovery from addiction.
