There are two articles in NEJM this year that say naltrexone is 'contraindicated for cirrhosis'. This saddens me. It is not supported by an evidence. Alcohol is 'contraindicated for cirrhosis'. That is supported by evidence

An important message on naltrexone in patients with liver disease: ✅Naltrexone can help reduce alcohol use without harming the liver. 🚫Alcohol DOES harm the liver. We do not need any more barriers to treat patients with AUD➕ALD! @nejm.org @ebtapper.bsky.social www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

This trend is very concerning given that alcohol damages the liver of females at 2x the rate of males. We are seeing so many young females (20s and 30s) who get very sick and often die from🍸🍷🍻-associated liver disease! We need to work on strategies to 📉 alcohol use in this population! #liversky

I frequently see patients with “new” cirrhosis only to find that on chart review they had low platelets/some other finding concerning for cirrhosis or liver disease often YEARS before. Thrombocytopenia should prompt a search for cirrhosis and may save lives/livers! #liversky
