There are many forms of treatment for alcoholism. None of these treatments will work if the addict is not willing to change. One of the forms of treatment is behavioral counselling which is used to change the of the addict's drinking behavior. There are currently only 3 drugs approved by the FDA to reduce or prevent heavy drinking, those pills drugs are Naltrexone, Acamprosate, and Disulfiram. Another form of treatment is mutual support groups like the Alcoholics Anonymous(AA), where other alcoholics come together to share stories and help get through that together.
