About 19% of Wyoming 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 Wyoming 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 — Wyoming edition
Can I do this if I work seasonally in the energy or tourism industries?
Yes. Monthly follow-up visits are 15 to 20 minutes and can be scheduled around shift work. If your travel takes you out of Wyoming, let us know — the provider holds licenses in many states, so we can usually continue your care.
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.
How much does this cost in Wyoming?
Cash-pay from $149/month for the provider visit. The medication itself (generic naltrexone) typically runs $30–$60/month at most Wyoming pharmacies — sometimes covered fully by insurance. Most major insurance accepted: Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Oscar, Ambetter, Medicare, Tricare, Molina.
Is this confidential?
Yes. Care is protected by HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2 — the federal law that provides extra confidentiality protections specifically for substance use disorder treatment records. Your treatment information cannot be shared without your explicit written consent. Video visits are encrypted end-to-end.
Ready when you are.
One short conversation can change your relationship with alcohol. Same-week appointments typical.
