Sorry if title is confusing. So here's my situation. I'm being forced to get the Vivitrol shot tomorrow by my doctor in order to be part of my group therapy. However, the active ingredient Naltrexone makes me feel sick and just terrible. Lots of side effects for me.
I came up with an idea to still get the shot, yet receive no Naltrexone. My first idea can't be done. I was going to simply replace the serum with a diluent, and receive shot with pure diluent.
However, I did not realize that the Vivitrol shot contains both diluent along with powder Naltrexone to be mixed together before getting the shot. That leaves me with a challenge to replace the white Naltrexone powder with something that looks alike, dissolves in the diluent, and will not hurt me. What kind of powder can I use to replace the Naltrexone? Anyone have any other ideas?
Also, please don't tell me to just tell them it makes me sick. I've tried, yet they're still forcing me to get the shot.
