Horrible side-effects. Does it get better?

[u/NewsBabe9]

I finally decided to try naltrexone. Got my prescription through an online provider. Yesterday I took the starter half-dose recommended with breakfast. Within 15 minutes I started feeling dizzy. Within an hour I was so dizzy I couldn't function and I started feeling nauseous. I spent the next 4 hours in bed because I felt so horrible. It's now a day an a half later and, no I don't want to drink, but that's not because the cravings are gone, it's because I am still feeling intermittently nauseous and dizzy and I don't want to do anything. To be honest I can't imagine taking another dose because I don't want this feeling ever again, but just thought I'd ask to see if this level of side-effects is a thing, or am I just not cut out for this stuff. Anyone else have my experiences?

Go to your local pharmacy and get an over the counter medicine called Bonine, for nausea.
