Hello, my husband is an alcoholic, drinking from past 7 years. He knows this is a problem but is not ready for any treatment. Is there a way/ medicine for this addiction.

Hello madam, kindly get his complete physical tests (investigations) done and show him the reports. Hopefully that may help him to understand the bad effects of alcohol consumption. Still not leaving the habit, see a psychiatrist. Remember madam, psychiatrists cn just help in leaving the habit, but there are no such medicines, which will make the patient to leave the habit completely.
