For Alcohol Use Disorder "Campral has been a 'miracle' drug for me and my alcohol. I've been an on & off drinker my entire life and realized it was hurting me. Burying a few friends sharpened my focus. Now, just over 2 months into zero booze... I feel much better. Campral helped me through the danger zone: 5 to 8:00 PM eating dinner & watching TV. The craving and temptation seem to have disappeared - my only side effect is flatulence - easy to deal with. I also practice HALT (hungry, angry, lonely, tired) to warn me against a relapse. Campral works. Two 333 tabs three times daily."

For Alcohol Use Disorder "It does work, but you need to give it a few weeks to help with the cravings. I lost my partner, my friends, and my license. Thanks to finding out about Campral myself on the net, my life has turned full circle and I got my REAL friends and life back again. My side effects were gas and lightheadedness. I can live with that."

For Alcohol Use Disorder "I used Campral a couple of years ago, and it worked great, although it did give me terrible gas. I stopped taking it and have relapsed, and I am getting back on it. It really worked. Thank God for the help."
