    Comment from: DD, 45-54 Female on Treatment for 1-6 months (Patient)

    As an alcoholic, I kept relapsing every 3 to 5 months. This has prevented my relapes, and I had no urges to drink at all! Don't even like to see it or smell it! Published: December 03, 2007 ::

    Comment from: 35-44 Male on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

    This medicine made me violently ill, painful, couldn't eat anything. It is not good for someone trying to gradually wean themselves off of alcohol. It is a huge shock to your body, not good. You need to be sober first if you take this medicine. Published: April 22, 2008 ::

    I have been on revia for 1 year for an opiate addiction. It has worked great for the cravings. The side effects have mostly subsided. In the beginning stomach cramps, nausea, hard to eat (appetite is still not great), but overall it has prevented me from any relapses in a yr. Published: May 13, 2009 ::
