What is The Sinclair Method? Naltrexone Treatment for Alcohol Addiction
The Sinclair Method is a science-based treatment program for alcohol addiction that uses the medication naltrexone. It allows and requires individuals to continue drinking alcohol while taking the medication. The method works by reversing alcohol use disorder in the brain and gradually restoring it to its pre-addiction state. The protocol involves taking naltrexone one to two hours before the first drink of the day. The ultimate goal is pharmacological extinction, where individuals are no longer addicted to alcohol. The method can be done privately and changes are gradual and subtle. It is important to be compliant and give the method enough time to work, as it has a 78% success rate.
