ReVia Warnings and Precautions

You should not be taking ReVia at all if you have liver failure, a history of allergic reaction to naltrexone or have to take narcotic pain medicine. These contraindications have to be discussed with your doctor for the right alternative to be found. There are also a number of other conditions and issues you need to let your doctor know about in advance. Some drugs, when combined with ReVia, may not be as efficient, while others will cause side effects such as drowsiness. Your doctor or pharmacist can give you detailed information on possible interactions and ways to avoid them.

ReVia is classified as FDA pregnancy category C, which means it may harm an unborn baby when taken by a pregnant woman. There is insufficient information on the effects it may have on a nursing infant. Women that are pregnant or breastfeeding must consult their doctor before using ReVia for their addiction or any other purpose. Patients taking any herbal supplements, those with any allergies, kidney problems, liver problems, a history of suicidal thoughts, mental illness or any other chronic conditions should also talk to their doctor about those to see if a dose adjustment or additional lab tests may be needed.
