Medical Disclaimer
Medical disclaimer for Get Naltrexone's evidence and access guides covering Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, the UAE, UK, and USA.
What this site can—and cannot—do
Last updated: 26 July 2026
In brief
Get Naltrexone explains published information about naltrexone and local access. It cannot assess your health, recent opioid exposure, other medicines, or treatment needs. The site is educational and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
Where this applies
This disclaimer applies to the entire website, including the country guides for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It also applies to comparisons, guides, product pages, evidence summaries, service listings, and links to external resources.
Decisions that need a professional
Use a licensed medical professional in your country—not this site—to decide whether to:
- start, stop, or change a medicine;
- choose a product, dose, timing plan, or treatment goal;
- manage side effects, withdrawal, pain, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or liver concerns.
Do not use this site to decide whether it is safe to start naltrexone after opioid use, override opioid-receptor blockade, manage withdrawal, select a dose, or respond to an overdose or other emergency. Low-dose naltrexone, standalone 50 mg naltrexone, extended-release injectable naltrexone, and naltrexone/bupropion combination products are not interchangeable.
No clinical relationship
Using this website does not establish a doctor-patient relationship. We are not healthcare providers, and we do not provide individual medical consultations.
Information changes
We make reasonable efforts to ensure information is accurate and current at the stated review date. However, medical evidence, clinical guidelines, product registrations, formularies, reimbursement rules, prescription charges, prices, stock, service pathways, and telehealth rules can change without notice. A regulator or formulary listing does not by itself prove that a product is currently marketed, stocked, funded, affordable, commonly prescribed, or suitable for an individual patient.
Country and price information is an evidence snapshot, not a guarantee of access or cost. Verify the exact product, strength, indication, prescriber requirements, current funding criteria, pharmacy stock, and out-of-pocket charges with an appropriate clinician, pharmacy, insurer, health service, or regulator in your location.
If something is urgent
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, contact emergency services immediately. Do not wait for a response from this website.

Responsibility and liability
Get Naltrexone and its authors accept no liability for any harm, loss, or damage arising from the use of or reliance on information provided on this site.
Links to other sites
This site links to external resources including product labels, clinical guidelines, PubMed records, government health authorities, medicine registries, formularies, and service directories. A link is provided as supporting evidence or a practical starting point; it is not an endorsement. We do not control external websites or guarantee their accuracy, availability, accessibility, or continued relevance.
Local rules and access
Naltrexone prescribing rules, availability, funding, and costs vary between countries and can also vary by state, province, territory, emirate, health service, insurer, or pharmacy. References to named clinics, manufacturers, pharmacies, telehealth services, or treatment pathways are informational and do not constitute endorsement, referral, or confirmation that a service will accept or appropriately treat a particular person.
Always confirm medical decisions with a licensed local clinician and confirm regulatory, supply, funding, and price information with the relevant local authority or provider.
