Times of India - Alcohol medication works best in some people
Published: 17 March 2011
A new study has found that naltrexone (Revia), one of the only medications approved for treating people with alcohol abuse problems, might only be effective in women and those with a specific genetic variation.  Researchers from the Research Institute of the Â鶹AV Health Centre and Â鶹AV University conducted the study.
"Our results suggest that we might now be able to predict beforehand who will benefit most," said Marco Leyton, lead investigator of the study.
