Any preventive medicine for alcoholism ?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Treatment: Learning to manage your stress and recognize the symptoms and signs of alcoholism is a great start. It may be helpful to attend an open meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous (these meetings are for everyone, not just alcoholics) or an AlAnon meeting.

Counseling: AAA meetings, identifying stressors and use of medication. Good success with Vivitriol injection once a month with counseling. Oral naltrexone is helpful too
