Have had selincro for a couple of months, but haven't dared take it because of possibility of side effects

but just took one now........... and am a little scared tbh.  I already suffer from nausea, digestive problems and have difficulty sleeping at times, so am concerned how this will go sad

    Hello Sue,

     I have been taking Selincro for a few months.  At first, I felt strange, a bit nauseous. I don't know if it disturbs sleep because my sleep pattern is crazy all of the time.

    I thought that I would have really bad side-effects, as I often react badly to medications.  I am pleased to say that Selincro is ok for me.

    I hope you can tolerate it too.  It does reduce your Alcohol Consumption... as long as you comply with the instructions.

    I have had mixed results, but I am back, complying, hoping for the best.

    Good Luck to you... I hope you succeed.

    Hi Sue. Sorry only just catching up on emails. How are you getting on with nalmephene? Praying it's helping you and you're not having bad side effects. Wishing you hope, good health and happiness xxxx

      It was awful.  Took just one and had one of the worst nights of my life

      I wrote about it in a thread called "Frightening Night" sad

      Will never use a drug again to help with this problem sad

      Sorry. I've missed a lot of discussions as I've been detoxing after a 4 week binge. Day 14 sober. Hope you find a way to control or abstain. Stay safe and take care xx
