Dec. 1, 2021 – Studies show naltrexone has few side effects that are typically not long-lasting. The drug blocks brain receptors for the effects of heroin and even alcohol.
“There’s more and more physicians now that are starting to practice addiction medicine,” said Tom Welch from BioCorRx. That’s one company working with pharmacies offering implants with the naltrexone compound. “But we need to get this widespread so anyone who needs this and that it’s appropriate for can get it,” said Welch.
The company said it has an Investigational New Drug (IND) with the FDA to begin human testing on a different, manufactured naltrexone pellet. It has received about $10 million federal dollars to help in the addiction fight.
