- What about the naltrexone implant experience? Have you had Naltrexone implants before? How many implants? For how long? How long have you been clean while being on a Naltrexone implant? You have had one Naltrexone implant in October last year, is that right?

What about heroin cravings & Naltrexone implant?
I don’t know if this… I don’t call it heroin cravings, but sometimes for brief second, a thought would come into my mind and then go straight away. If I know I can’t use heroin because that naltrexone blocks it
- Does a Naltrexone implant help you with heroin cravings, and obsessive thoughts about drugs?
- Yes, I think so, yes.
- Why have you decided to take a one-year Naltreone implant now? Was it your decision?
- Yes, it’s a lot cheaper option for the year in Belgrade compared to London (there are no implants available in London anymore, by the way). Having to go back there every three months to have the implant fitted is just not practical really.
- Ok, thank you very much.
