Campral

Has anyone here heard of or tried the drug Campral? It is supposed to eliminate ones physical cravings for alcohol.

Just wondering?

There's information about acamprosate and the other drugs used in treatment of alcohol abuse up in the thread Quitting: What To Expect:

It's something I posted towards the end.

I take an older drug, naltrexone, and I really don't have cravings for alcohol. And no side effects either. Plus it's probably cheaper than Campral. Hope this helps!

Love and hugs,
