Here's something to consider for those of you who've faced frustration at the doctor's office. You now may have access to what many others here in the US and elsewhere have long awaited: Acomplia.
Long story short: Acomplia (rimonabant) is another medication that we may be able to plug into the MWO program, as it blunts the craving for alcohol. We've got info about it in our research area--if you dig around you'll find it including this overview.
Here's one of the many stories that hit the press today. Acomplia is prescribed as a weight loss medication. So if you happen to be faced with both a weight and drinking issue, this may be something to consider, at least short term.
Anyway, if this sounds like an option for you, be sure and talk to your doctor about it.
Just checking in now and catching up on the boards. Best to all. :-)
