Who We Treat
Who is a candidate for Vivitrol injections?
To determine if you’re a candidate for Vivitrol injections, your Victory Recovery Partners provider reviews your medical history and asks about your substance use.

The side effects you experience depend on several factors, including your age, your health history, and the other medications you regularly take.
Usually, these symptoms last for a day or two and then go away. If your symptoms persist or get worse, contact Victory Recovery Partners right away.

- Diarrhea
- Fatigue
- Sleepiness
