Opioid Antagonist

Ge Huijie, former partner of singer Wang Feng, publicly disclosed undergoing an abdominal “sobriety implant” to treat alcohol addiction. The minimally invasive procedure places 10 naltrexone pellets under her skin, blocking alcohol’s euphoric effects for approximately 150 days and posing severe risks if alcohol is consumed. Although recognized as an emerging technological solution, medical experts caution that addiction is a chronic brain disorder requiring sustained therapy and support beyond the implant’s temporary effect. Her revelation highlights personal struggles and this medical approach’s limitations.
