Hello @heartbeatz22 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I can tell that you are pleased to get some medication support to help you deal with alcoholism.

As other members, @roch and @joiful, have wisely mentioned, the more supports you have in place the more successful you are likely to be. Are you also involved in AA meetings and/or working with a therapist?

As you are comfortable doing so, could you share a little about your history with addiction?

@hopeful33250 Has anyone personally taken meds available to stop drinking & if so can you please explain how the drugs helped you to quit drinking? I’m in straight line recovery for 42 plus years but curious about new drugs that weren’t available for me that many years ago & would like information on these drugs for some in my family that need the help?
