This product gave me migraines

UPDATE: OAR issued a full refund. I really appreciate this.

This product gave me migraines. Additionally, I was unaware (or forgot) that I would be automatically renewed/charged - either way I never received notification/alert that a new shipment was scheduled to ship and my credit card was going to be charged. I only received notification after my card was charged. I replied immediately to stop shipment because I will not use this product. They will not refund. My card was charged $297 for a product I will not use. Every other service I use on subscription will send a notification prior to shipping with the option to cancel or delay shipment. I received no notification from OAR. This is bad business and feels like a scam. Do not buy this product.
UPDATE: In response to OAR's reply to this review. I did *not* receive an email ahead of payment/shipment. You prescribed me a 3-month supply of medication without consulting me. Again, I subscribe to other services that do send an email reminder ahead of shipment with options to skip, edit, or cancel. NO such email came from OAR. I hear what you are saying: That your subscription terms are "clear" but it so incomprehensible to me how you could continue to prescribe medication to a patient without ever consulting them! Even with subscription! Your billing practices are suspect... more like a scam business than a real medical provider. It is clear that OAR is concerned with profit over patient care.

I am sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with your prescribed medication and that you were taken by surprise by your membership renewal.

While we do explain our renewal policies at sign-up and send out reminders of upcoming renewals one week in advance, I know that these can sometimes be lost in our inboxes or forgotten. We never want anyone to be taken by surprise by their charges, especially if Oar Health is not working out well for them. So, I will be using Trustpilot's "Request information" feature to get more information from you to see if we can resolve your concern.

Thank you for sharing your feedback,

Drinking less from the first dose

I started drinking less after the very first dose. Naltrexone calms my cravings for alcohol and allows me to say no after only one or not drink at all. I have never felt this in control of my drinking. I have so much more energy during the day, at work, in the gym, and at home. I'm also sleeping better.

Congratulations on the progress you are making to take back control over alcohol!

I'm especially glad to see that your prescribed medication has calmed your cravings and empowered you to say no to alcohol when you're at your limit. It's also great to see that the benefits, like more energy at home and work, are starting to stack up.

Keep that progress going and keep noticing those benefits,

Week 2 so far

Easy to apply for and get meds if you qualify. Lots of communication from OAR - through startup and during. No real side effects for me. Definitely takes the edge off of wanting/ needing the alcohol. Ive been drinking for like 50 years off and on- beer daily for like the last decade just to give an idea. I actually haven’t missed the alcohol much for these past couple weeks - just the lifestyle and social environment. This isn’t a magic pill - still takes your commitment and motivation but is working for me !

Lost the desire to drink!

Since day one I didn't have that internal conflict starting at 4 pm. "Should I have a drink, what if I just have one?" I am truly amazed at how well this works for me. I tried for years to stop and I did for a while, but always had a desire to try to moderate. That desire is gone!

Congratulations on the progress you are making to take back control over alcohol! I'm glad that your prescribed medication has helped by reducing the desire to drink and the difficult internal struggle that follows. It is quite amazing how fewer cravings can make it easier to unlock changes that we may have been seeking for quite awhile.

Keep up the good work you are doing, and keep noticing those benefits!

So glad I did it. Even easier than I thought.

Very easy and Oar is also responsive and follows up. Feels private as well. I’ve been with Oar for only two weeks and have already seen a DRAMTIC decrease in cravings and an easy change in my habits. I highly recommend for those who have struggled to cut back through simple willpower alone. I’m still 100% me and the only change I’ve noticed is that the need/want to have a third, second, or even first drink is now pretty much meh.

You are worth it! Silence the drinking noise!

Silence the drinking noise in no time! Trust me!

Hoping this reaches someone. I started heavily drinking at 42, near a bad marriage, no abuse just loneliness. It escalated, had several affairs, marriage ended. I fell in love quick. Predator found me, weak prey. Well, drinking excelerated. Now, alone, single, raising my child. I worked, secretly binge drinker. Eventually from 42 to 47, I always worked but the 2 day benders, while daughter was with her dad, was my escape. Then I sobered up, gotta parent right? We'll around 48 the drinking eased. I fell in love. Happy, but still the small benders every few months were there. Hiding.

Around 52, I truly get it under control. I can work a full week, no drink, but Friday, its happy hour. Off to the races for an evening. Im better, because its only 4 drinks, not 10. Inside, I knew I needed and craved to be truly free. Now at 54, Im truly sober after a 12 year sprint being chained to this horrid addiction.

Im adopted, but I knew at 45 when I couldn't easily just stop. I had a suspicion it was inherited. It was. My bio dad died druggie/ alcoholic/ mentally ill. So now, I knew this demon. They say we fight the same demons our parents fought. Well my life has been good in general but this nagging addiction. Even when I controlled it, it was the little
"Issue" in my life. So I saw the ad a few months back. I took a chance. I said 2026, I would kill this issue. I am tired of heading to the casino and having to drink, the craving when I watched others was always on my shoulder.

Now, its been 30 days. Im sold. Now, Im only on 1/2 a pill, at night. I sleep like a baby. I wake up in a mild fog but its now to 10 min, then coffee. So, Im happy I found that tip. Start slow. Im not sure I will ever go up to one full pill. I feel so in control. I feel like this MONKEY is finally off me

Now, the first three weeks is wonky. Just ride it out. I felt sad here and there. Started questioning my partner. Felt he was cheating again. I had warned him of the side effects. After I spent an hour on his phone, he hugged me. He said, its ok. I felt lost. It lasted for a few hours. Just relax. I cried for 10 min. I thought, what if being sober, fully sober, means being self aware too. Maybe I won't tolerate bull crap in my life. But dont be rash. Make no major life decisions. Just breathe. Find a partner you can tell. Well, I had a few panic attacks. I just took time to rest, it passed. It's just my body healing, shifting.

And the thoughts of quitting this pill. Nope! Stay through the discomfort. Go take warm baths, do more self care. I watched TV til the jitters passed. You will be so happy.

Well, I love live music. So headed to the casino. Could I last? Yep! Im a winner. No craving! I saw people sipping. I ordered an Odouls non- alcohol drink. Perfect. I fit in, but guess who woke up dancing? ME! For the first time in years, a trip to the casino didn't equal a hangover, posing as a mild cold. My partner hugged me. He said, you dont need it to dance, be happy. You danced all night. I did. I forgot about the drinking, and was just me! All me! Fully me before 42! Im back. Fully.

Yes, I have a mild low grade headache. Very mild here and there. At night I do a little melatonin on top of my 1/2 pill.

What's even nice: the drinking voice/ noise is gone. It's like food noise. It starts on Friday, screams, happy hour, says you deserve it, you work hard, so you are owed it, and you are good, grown. Well, that drunken voice is gone. Oar, this tiny pill, is so powerful. It should be free from our govt. So many are suffering. This pill is a gamechanger. 1000%. Best thing I did. I had to look up how to share this story.

What's crazy. One day last week, had a melt down. Said..maybe I dont need this pill. My partner said, "you were fine before, so maybe". Thank God for God. I said, " No, Im not fine. I wasn't fine. I was sneaking drinks and having mini benders that I would cover up with the
"Flu". Im so sick of lying to myself. I have 4 degrees. I know damn better! So, I allowed the body and mental flip to pass. My partner went silent. He knew it to. He is the typical enabler. Sadly his Ex-wife was a drunk! So, of course he knows the signs, yet love allows you to turn a blind eye. After all. I make great money so I have to be fine. Nope! More lies. Im no longer going to be a functioning, secret drunk.

I said 2026 I woul ask for more of me. And now Im living this dream. I cried the morning after the casino. And guess who didn't drop $100, but $20. No alcohol is savings! Yum!

I wish our government cared more for us. So many people need relief, can't afford it. I pray someone sees this, and finds their OAR, their courage to change. Im writting this for you. It was on my heart. I want to shout it. Im free. My pesky secret can die! Im happy. I want to walk in the full sun of me! Drunkenness, IVS to recover, lies of a constant flu. Pray you can meet me on the other side, get free. You are WORTH IT.

Feeling Good

It’s been 2weeks and I feel good on the medication. I had a few side effects to begin with, but they have subsided. I’m not drinking and I’m thinking about alcohol less than I have in the past and I have a lot of energy. I feel if I needed someone to talk with I could get help on the Oar website.

It works.

It works… I’m not craving like I normally do and it has actually turned me off. When I start drinking I don’t have an off button and this lil pill surprisingly created one. I’m not wanting to quit entirely and this lil guy is truly helping me pump the breaks and cut way back.

I’m new to Oarhealth but am happy with my experience so far. The

I appreciate the privacy Oarhealth offers and the freedom they allow me to choose the services I want. They don’t hector me with too many emails or pressure me to do more than I’m comfortable with.
