It does require a perscription. I would recommend talking to a psychitrist who has addiction experience. There is plenty to read about it online, as well as here on the boards. I think it is also sold under the brand name Rivia.
Complete abstainence is really the recommended approach, one that I really should probably work towards as well. My personal experience has been that it greatly reduced the mental cravings I was having. The one's I still have are much more easily battled with logic and reason. If I do choose to drink, I usually lose interest in it after 1-2 drinks, even on nights I bought a bottle with the intention of finishing it off. Again, abstainance should be the goal in mind, but I am still very much a "work in progress", so I will take the improvment in my situation.
