According to the Xiaoxiang Morning Post, a man in Changsha recently received naltrexone implantation, becoming the first alcohol addiction naltrexone implant in China, according to the Xiaoxiang Morning Post on April 20. According to experts, naltrexone implants are like "abstinence chips". The clinical application of naltrexone is expected to fill the gap in the field of prevention and recurrence of alcohol addiction in China, bringing good news to alcohol addicts and their families.

It is reported that the 36-year-old Mr. Liu, who has been drinking for 15 years, drinks one jin of wine every day and often loses his temper and hits people when he is drunk. He suffered from a variety of diseases as a result of alcohol addiction, including stomach problems, neuropathy, pneumonia, pulmonary bullae, cerebrum and cerebellar atrophy. He also tried to quit drinking, but failed. He also had mistrust and hostility to the people around him, thinking that his parents looked down on him, his girlfriend betrayed him, and some people spoke ill of him, which seriously affected his body and mind.

In order to help alcoholic addicts like Mr. Liu, Professor Hao Wei of the Institute of Mental Health of the second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University led a domestic clinical trial of naltrexone implants, jointly conducted by six sub-centers. Hunan brain Hospital (the second people's Hospital of Hunan Province) is one of the important sub-centers of the trial. When Mr. Liu heard the news, he took the initiative to sign up for the trial. And became the first alcohol addict in the country to undergo naltrexone implantation on April 12. The operation took only five minutes, and according to previous clinical trials, naltrexone can take effect immediately after implantation and continue to be released for nearly five months.
