Gastro Resistant
Gastro-resistant Acamprosate tablets are a medication prescribed to individuals who are recovering from alcohol dependence or alcohol use disorder (AUD). The active ingredient in these tablets is Acamprosate.
Acamprosate works by helping to balance certain neurotransmitters in the brain, which can be disrupted by chronic alcohol use. This medication is thought to reduce cravings for alcohol and alleviate some of the withdrawal symptoms associated with alcohol cessation. By making it easier for individuals to abstain from alcohol, it supports the maintenance of sobriety.
The "gastro-resistant" formulation means that these tablets are designed to pass through the stomach and dissolve in the intestines. This helps improve the absorption of the medication and minimizes potential gastrointestinal side effects.
Gastro-resistant Acamprosate tablets are typically used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include counseling and other supportive therapies. They should be taken as directed by a healthcare provider. It's important to discuss potential side effects and the overall treatment strategy with a healthcare professional before starting Acamprosate therapy. This medication is most effective when used in combination with a commitment to sobriety and a comprehensive approach to addiction recovery.
