Acamprosate Calcium
The calcium salt form of acamprosate used to support abstinence from alcohol in people who have already stopped drinking. It works in the same way as acamprosate by stabilizing brain chemistry altered by chronic alcohol exposure, reducing the craving and discomfort of early sobriety. Kidney function should be checked before starting it because the dose needs adjustment in patients with reduced kidney capacity.
