WHAT IS VIVITROL?

Opioid dependence and alcohol dependence are chronic, relapsing brain diseases that can be devastating both psychologically and physically. Prevent relapse in opioid-dependent patients and reduce heavy drinking days in alcohol-dependent patients with VIVITROL® (naltrexone for extended-release injectable suspension)—a non-addictive, once-monthly injectable medication—when used in conjunction with counseling, and following opioid detoxification.1

MEET VIVITROL, AN ANTAGONIST TREATMENT OPTION

VIVITROL is indicated for:

  • Treatment of alcohol dependence in patients who are able to abstain from alcohol in an outpatient setting prior to initiation of treatment with VIVITROL. Patients should not be actively drinking at the time of initial VIVITROL administration.
  • Prevention of relapse to opioid dependence, following opioid detoxification.
  • VIVITROL should be part of a comprehensive management program that includes psychosocial support.

VIVITROL is contraindicated in patients:

  • Receiving opioid analgesics
  • With current physiologic opioid dependence
  • In acute opioid withdrawal
  • Who have failed the naloxone challenge test or have a positive urine screen for opioids
  • Who have exhibited hypersensitivity to naltrexone, polylactide-co-glycolide (PLG), carboxymethylcellulose, or any other components of the diluent
