Side effects. The most common side effects reported with naltrexone are gastrointestinal complaints such as diarrhea and abdominal cramping. These adverse effects are analogous to the symptoms of opioid withdrawal, as the mu receptor blockade will increase GI motility. Naltrexone has been reported to cause liver damage (when given at doses higher than recommended).
The use of naltrexone was first approved for the treatment of opiate dependence in 1984 and for alcohol dependence in 1994. In 2006, Vivitrol, a new formulation of this medication was approved for alcohol and in 2010 Vivitrol was approved for the prevention of relapse to opiate dependence.Naltrexone does not cause an antabuse-like aversion reaction.ates of nausea and GI symptoms are lower when using Vivitrol compared to oral naltrexone. Soreness at the injection site is common and can be managed with massage, NSAIDS, or ice packs. This is a similar side effect to other IM buttocks injections, such as antibiotics, and is not related to naltrexone itself.
