There are certain medicines that can be given which cause aversion to alcohol and reduce craving. However I is always recommended to give them under supervision with consent, and after a complete history of the patients drinking pattern, withdrawal symptoms and associated symptoms like depression, anxiety, fits, mood swings or psychotic episodes etc consult online for further queries and assistance.
