What could be done to quit alcohol addiction due to stress?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Please give me some insight into alcohol abuse. I have been drinking more and more over the last three to four years. I do not want this to turn into a severe problem. I did a lot of research and would like to try the tablet Antabuse (Disulfiram). This has the potential to hinder me from drinking entirely. I am also taking the tablet Zoloft for anxiety and depression. Please help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
Alcohol abuse has a negative impact on your health in several ways, including your liver, nerves, stomach, and larynx. It can cause cirrhosis, peripheral neuropathy, gastritis, and larynx cancer.
How many drinks do you consume per day? I recommend taking the tablet Antabuse (Disulfiram) 250 mg once daily, followed by tablet Campral (Acamprosate calcium) 333 mg, two tablets every eight hours.
I hope that you get your answer.
Please let me know if you need any help.
Thank you.
