When you are ordering Nal online, God only knows what you are getting.

Here is a clue...chew one of the pills. If it tastes like the worst thing you have EVER tasted in your life...then it MIGHT be Nal. I'm in Canada and I have the privilege of being able to have the real thing -- and holy -- it tastes horrifically awful. There are those here who swear by chewing the Nal, thinking that they have a timed-release version...hence chewing it to remove the timed-release element.

Good luck to you. Keep us posted.


Thanks Dab. We'll try the chew test to see if it is horrific or not. Do Canadian doctors support the use of Naltrexone using the Sinclair method (continuing to drink)?

I can't answer the question about Canadian doctors but it was an article in Macleans that introduced me to both Naltrexone and Baclofen. Just another reason I like that magazine ;)
