About 18% of New Hampshire adults report binge drinking in the past month, per CDC BRFSS data.
Heavy drinking is one of the most treatable conditions in primary care — and one of the least treated. Roughly 1 in 7 adults nationally meets criteria for alcohol use disorder at some point, yet fewer than 1 in 10 ever receive medication for it. Naltrexone, an FDA-approved opioid antagonist used for AUD since 1994, is one of the most effective tools we have. It reduces cravings and the rewarding effect of alcohol — so drinking feels less compulsive, often within weeks.
If you live in New Hampshire and have wondered whether your drinking has become a problem, you don't need to wait until it's a crisis. You don't need to call yourself an alcoholic. You don't need to commit to lifelong sobriety to start. A 30-minute video visit is enough to get evaluated and, if appropriate, get a prescription sent to your local pharmacy this week.

Common questions — New Hampshire edition

Generic naltrexone is widely available — Rite Aid, Walgreens, Hannaford, Walmart, and most independent pharmacies stock it or can order it within 24 to 48 hours. We send the prescription electronically to your chosen pharmacy.
Do I have to stop drinking before starting naltrexone?
No. Naltrexone can be started while you're still drinking. Many patients reduce gradually as the medication takes effect. The exception: if you're physically dependent (severe daily drinking, withdrawal symptoms), you may need a brief medical taper first — your provider will assess this at your consult.

Cash-pay from $149/month for the provider visit. The medication itself (generic naltrexone) typically runs $30–$60/month at most New Hampshire pharmacies — sometimes covered fully by insurance. Most major insurance accepted: Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Oscar, Ambetter, Medicare, Tricare, Molina.
