naltrexene for SSRI poopout???????????

Posted by JohnX2 on March 13, 2002, at 14:05:22


I saw this in the tips section.

Does this really work? I am quite intrigued?
What is the hypothesis if it does?

Lee Dante wrote, in part:

This phenomena of the SSRI "poop out" can usually be reversed by adding 25 mg of naltrexone (marketed in the US as Revia), usually on top of supper to avoid
transient nausea. In anywhere from two weeks to five of once daily dosing the SSRI regains the full effect and often is perceived as working better than it did at
first. I have done this in over forty cases where this has been most gratifying. At this dose of naltrexone the incidence of side effects is very low, and the
improvement is sustained over a period of years. It has been the end of poop out in my practice.
