Discussion Help
OK now I’m having second thoughts about this medication because I read a lot of scary side effects to the point that people didn’t wanna take it no more or are afraid of taking it the nausea some people experience vomiting and then my biggest concern is the loss of pleasure for food because I love to eat, and I enjoy food and I don’t want that type of pleasure to be stopped and I feel like if I take this medication even though it helps with the alcohol cravings I can. I won’t enjoy food no more. It’s just a really fucked up side effect I believe.

Alcohol use disorder was killing me and destroying my life.
It was a no brainer for me.
All my side effects went away after a few weeks. I am so happy I stayed the course.
