The album was received seven times platinum certification in Greece and Cyprus, and platinum in Turkey. It was the best-selling album of 2000 in Greece and Cyprus. In Australia, it charted within the top 75 of the official Australian charts and is the best selling Greek album in the country. Today, the album stands as one of the most successful albums of all time in Greece with sales passed over 175,000 copies (350,000 discs).

This album, along with English-speaking album Everything I Am, released the same year, showcased a significant change over Anna's stylistic and musical selections, expanding her image as a pop icon and contemporary artist as promoted in the mid-1990s and onwards.

Release

After the release of the album Antidoto, Vissi spent most of her time outside of Greece. On 15 July 2000, the CD single Agapi Ipervoliki was released which included six new songs and received quadruple-platinum certification. Her first album after Antidoto was the English-speaking album Everything I Am which released on 23 October 2000. One month later, Kravgi was released which included 17 new songs, as well as the six tracks from the last CD single and a remix of an previous release (the track "Kapnizo" from the album Fotia). It also is her first double studio album.

In 2019, the album was selected for inclusion in the Panik Gold Records box set "The Legendary Recordings 1982–2019". The release came after Panik's acquisition rights of Anna's back catalogue from her previous company, Sony Music Greece. This box set was printed on a limited edition of 500 copies containing CD releases of all of her albums from 1982 to 2019 plus unreleased material.
