Opiate receptors

In reply to what neurotransmitters affect Alcohol?, posted by Tepiaca on March 25, 2006, at 13:25:39


Hi Tepiaca --

From what I`ve read some time ago, Opiate receptors are the most important receptors related to alchool rewarding effects.

Alchoolic are sometime prescribe some Opiate receptor antagonist, like altrexone and Amperozide. Those reduces the effects/pleasure of the person who drink, resulting in reducing significally their alchool craving.

Maybe someone on the forum had tried those and may want to share their experience with us...

Hope you're well,
Marty
