Acamprosate
"After attempting and failing AA over and over for one year, failing treatment four times, I decided that I had to investigate something other than AA.  No one EVER told me, including my counselor, that Campral was an alternative.  I have been on it for a month and the cravings are gone and I only THINK occasionally about alcohol, and then it is with ambivalence.  I wish I had know about this sooner.  Hats off to those that can stay sober in AA.  It was not for me.  I am in counseling and am doing better than I have in my life.  HAPPY!!"
