Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

It is really good that you have decided to quit alcohol.I congratulate for the same.

If you are comfortable physically to do sex , you can have sex though you are on treatment for alcohol withdrawal.

Vibrania is vitamin containing drug. No issue with that regarding sex.

No drug interaction found between Acamprol and viagra.(but it does not mean there will be no significant interaction)
In my opinion you can you can take viagra if required.(I assume you do not have hypertension or any heart problem and you had taken in past without any discomfort)

I request you to inform your doctor regarding the same. Though no interaction found between this drugs, we have to be careful always. Any side effect occurs by chance, your doctor can immediately help if you have informed him.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further if needed.

Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
