What is Vivitrol:
Vivitrol is a medication that blocks the effects of Opioids, making it almost impossible to get high off of pain pills or heroin. This medication is being used by people in recovery as a way of prevention relapse. It's been shown to be very helpful especially in the early stages of recovery.
What does Vivitrol treat?
Opioids
Heroin
How often is Vivitrol given?
Vivitrol is formulated for extended-release, making this is a once-a-month injection.
At Hope For Families Recovery Center and Greenville Transitions, clients have used Vivatrol effectively. Which it why we think this once-a-month approach versus once-a-day can be a huge success in early recovery.
