In reply to Best med for alcohol and sweeties craving, posted by tex1 on January 18, 2005, at 4:30:21
> Dear all, it's been a while since I haven't posted in this forum. Now things have changed abit...My new problem is alcohol and sweeties abuse and craving. Am bipolar and now I'm on 300 mg Depakote twice a day and 10mg of clomipramine. Unfortunately every night I drink 0.75 liter or so of white wine and then crave for sweeties...I'm sick tired of this situation because at work I feel numb...with loss of concetration and sleepy. I've always beleived that under the alcohol abuse there is a depression and/or anxiety problem. So I ask to you if anyone knows a good med for this kind of problem (looks like OCD maybe...).

Is acamprosate (Campral) available in Italy? It helps reduce alcohol cravings, but I do not know if it helps for sweets.
