Other new meds for alcohol cravings

Posted by mikialzed on December 7, 2004, at 10:43:02

Does anyone know if there are any new medications for alcoholism besides naltrexone / ReVia®).
I have heard about Zofran® (generic name: ondansetron) and Topamax® (generic name: topiramate), but i know little about them.
I am ADD & Bipolar taking Wellbutrin SR, Trazadone to sleep, Pemoline, Abilify & was on Strattera, but couldn't handle the medicine taste it left + felt no effect.
I recently lost my job and am extremely anxious, and i started to drink again, which is not helping.
Could someone give me some guidance here?
