Hi, my husband used to drink weekly once, but now days he made it a daily habits from last 2 months. I want to stop this as soon as possible. Please recommend me any pills that can be used and also tell me the duration to be taken and whether it is before food or after food.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

There are certain drugs that produce aversion on taking alcohol like disulphiram, but it is very dangerous to give that drug without patient knowledge. It could even lead to death. Better to consult a psychiatrist for proper detoxification or admit him in a rehab center. In case, you need any help, you can consult me.

Regards
Dr. Abhishek Kapoor
