Ed2010, An interesting concept with a reported high rate of success for alcoholism is called the Sinclair Method. It uses full dose Naltrexone at 50 mg taken ONLY before drinking. Here's the link:

A google search brings up many other articles about this. Naltrexone can be purchased in any drug store in India OTC without a prescription and is inexpensive. Best wishes.

Vitamin B3 therapy cures alcoholism, anxiety, tension and, even, schizophrenia
Back in 1960, 'Bill W.', co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, (Bill Wilson) met Abram Hofer, M.D., Ph.D. - who introduced Bill to the amazing healing potential of mega vitamin therapy. Dr. Hofer had lots of success treating schizophrenic patients - who also suffered from alcohol addiction and depression. Naturally, Bill W. was very curious - to say the least - and started to take 3,000 mg. of vitamin B3 per day.
After a few weeks, the fatigue and depression that plagued Bill W., for years, was gone. To make a long story short, Bill W. gave 30 of his close friends in Alcoholics Anonymous the same therapy and, within 6 months, he was convinced vitamin B3 would be very helpful for alcoholics. Unfortunately, as I'm sure you could guess by now, many of his appointed 'medical experts' did not like his excitement over a vitamin therapy to treat health problems and, to this date, vitamin B3 therapy remains a 'secret' to millions of needy individuals.Replied by Timh (KY) on 07/20/2014
The mineral Zinc at 50mg daily goes very well w/ Niacin to restore depleted alcohol detox thus reducing toxicity and all the bad side effects. Omega 3 Fatty Acids or EPA's are also depleted in alcoholism so is important to eat cold water fish like Salmon, Mackerel, and Sardines or take the Oils as supplement which would also include the now popular Krill. Occasional Cod Liver Oil is good source of Omega 3's as well as replenishing depleted Vit-A&D.
