Alcohol Dependence
"I started taking campral 5 weeks ago (with some Valium for first week or so to help with withdrawal). So far I haven&#039;t had a drink and for the first time ever have not had to struggle relentlessly to stay sober. The first week was a bit rocky but nowhere as difficult as the many times before I have tried (unsuccessfully) to quit.  I have not been thinking about alcohol all the time nor having to &quot;talk myself down&quot; from buying any as I haven&#039;t had major cravings which is amazing! After doing some research I asked my doctor to include baclofen a couple of weeks ago. It is apparently showing some promise for anticraving. It also seems to help me stay calm/ less anxious. Very grateful for these meds and wish I had known about them before."
