Will the naltrexone implant still work if my partner has taken a naltroxone tablet the day before the implantation?
My partner is due the naltroxone implant tomorrow & has admitted to taking blues 4 days ago, therefore hes taken half a naltroxone tablet today to induce opiate withdrawal. Will this affect him getting the implant tomorrow? will it show in his urine/blood sample? and will it cause him any harm having the implant fitted in these circumstances?

teenage alcoholic
My 18 year old son has been to out, and in-patient treatment programs for alcohol abuse. He seems to have no will power whatsoever when it comes to his friends and or drinking. He is an athlete in incredible shape. He works 5 days a week. He works out with 2 different trainers 5 days a week. He is supposed to be going to college to play football in August. He pushes his body to the limit all week, then on the weekend, he says he won't drink, but somehow always starts and doesn't stop till he's completely ...passed out. I've been hearing about medications to help control the urge to drink.Naltrexone,Topiramate. I'm hoping he can get a handle on it before it completely destroys his future.ANY HELP PLEASE. Kay
