What happens if someone deliberately tries to override the Naltrexone blockade with opiates in order to get a high?
During the first few days post-detox (especially on days 6,7 and 8), we strongly advise the person not to ‘test’ the blockade. Some individuals may experience stomach cramps, vomiting and diarrhoea should they do so. If the 50 mg per day blockade dose of Naltrexone is kept up, no relapse will occur.
