I found out about Campral in a detox facility literature box. I was a liter a day vodka drinker 24/7. I immediately asked my Doctor to prescribe it for me because I knew that the detox was not enough for me because I had to leave a day early due to a family emergency. Campral worked for me sooner than what the literature said and was a lifesaver. I had no side affects and wished I could take i...
I have been taking campral 333 3x a day for a month and have been suffering severe side effects; violent diarrhea, extreme and powerful flatulence, stomach cramps so intense that my doctor thought I might have colitis, nose bleeds, blurred vision, fatigue, joint pain, headaches, increased anxiety, the list goes on!

Side effects for me are constant ringing in the ears, and anemia. But it worked great. I drank constantly for 16 years, now I haven't had a drop for 3 weeks. That's amazing.

Campral has worked very well in eliminating the cravings of alcohol. This will be a very good tool for those that also use A.A. to abstain from alcohol. I do have joint pain as a side effect, but thats better than jail, court, divorce, ect.

I find it very effective in reducing cravings. If I even TRY to fantisize my old thoughts, there is no interest any longer. Somewhat difficult for me to remember to take it at the same time every day.
