Getting Naltrexone for Pain Management

Did you have to see a pain management clinic to get on naltrexone? My Rheumatologist said I would have to set one to get it, but I don't want to start the cycle of higher and higher dose pain pills. I've seen them ruin people's lives...

I'm on naltrexone for skin-picking, and I just had it prescribed through my psychiatrist. Might be different if you're looking to get on it for pain management, but I don't think you would have to go to a pain management clinic to have it prescribed.
