Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,

Thank you for your query.

Best way to get rid of drinking is first to motivate him to quit alcohol and then admit in psychiatric nursing home.

First of all motivation of patient is very important without that difficult to quit.
Address him that alcohol addiction is psychiatric illness and which affects him a lot in all ways.

There are many medications like benzodiazepins e.g, lorazepam, clonazepam, chlordizepoxide, diazepam etc helps to relieve withdrawal features and topiramate and acamprosate are anti-craving medications.

Aversion therapy also we can try with Disulfirum medication which causes alcohol disulfiram reaction and that's why patient quits alcohol.

Consult psychiatrist for detail history and medication.
discuss above medication with treating doctor.
Awaiting your response.
Thank you

Brief Answer:
consult psychiatrist

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,

Without informing your brother you can give him medication but there are many risk factors.

You can give him Disulfiram but there are many risk factors like after taking medication, if he consumes alcohol then there are chances of adverse reactions like nausea, vomiting, flushing, skin reaction, giddiness, imbalance, coma, death etc..

And this medication is available only with psychiatrist, no other pharmacist has this medication.

So consult any local psychiatrist and discuss about this medication.

Thank you
