Most alcoholics do not recognize problems and deny their dependence on alcohol. Almost everyone is sure that he can refuse at any moment, simply at the moment there is no reason to refuse another bottle, despite tears, despair and threats from relatives.

Treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient is considered the last step, to which relatives and loving people go, before finally dropping their hands.

However, such an approach, even for the sake of saving a person, is illegal, since treatment for alcohol dependence should be carried out only with the consent of the person, otherwise he has every right to sue.

Often, people are treated with alternative medicine, but some herbs can damage health, in particular, cause chronic diseases to worsen, so it is better to choose a drug more carefully and consult a doctor before starting treatment.

Often, treatment with alternative methods has a short-term effect, the craving for alcohol returns and the person starts to drink, often even more than before.

It is also worth noting that, according to experts, almost any method is effective if the patient himself recognizes the problem and wants to get rid of addiction.

Alternative treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient

The problem of alcoholism has existed for a long time, that is why there are many methods in the people that help to save a person from painful predilection. Almost all the means of alternative medicine are aimed at causing a negative reflex to the taste and smell of alcohol, to reduce the painful attraction.

It is possible to use such treatment without consent, but in this case it is important that a person does not learn about it, otherwise he will become distrustful, angry and then, it will be much harder to save him.

Treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient should be carried out in strict accordance with the prescription. Many plants are contraindicated in diseases of the heart, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, hypertension, any mental or nervous disorders, so it is recommended to consult a doctor before choosing a prescription.

It is also worth remembering that alternative methods have a temporary effect, since complex therapy is needed to get rid of alcoholism, including counseling of the therapist. Alcoholism is considered a mental illness, the craving for alcohol remains with the patient in the subconscious, so herbs and other alternatives can only temporarily prevent reluctance to drink, especially if the patient does not want to throw a bad habit.

In addition, a number of medical fees help to clean up the hangover syndrome and improve a person's condition after a long drinking-bout.

The people usually use infusions and decoctions of various herbs, mushroom dung, green bugs, conspiracies and prayers.

Mushroom dung is considered quite effective in the treatment of alcoholism.

The treatment is quite simple - mushrooms can be cooked in any way (boil, fry, stew) and feed the patient. The taste of them can hardly be distinguished from champignons, so there will be no suspicion on the part of the person.

Fungi prevent the splitting of alcohol, which causes symptoms of severe poisoning (it should be noted that the fungi are harmless to human health).

Symptoms of poisoning last for several days, during which a person can not consume alcohol.

Tincture with red pepper also causes intense vomiting and causes aversion to alcoholic beverages.

To prepare such a tincture, 1 tbsp. Red ground pepper and 0.5 liters of alcohol (60%). After two weeks the product is ready for use - infusion of 2-3 drops per bottle of vodka.

Another good way to get rid of a bad habit is kefir serum, which helps to remove toxins and decay products from the body, reduce painful attraction to alcohol, strengthen the protective functions of the body. By the way, serum is useful for the health of not only alcoholics.

To prepare, you need 1 liter of kefir (3.2%), flour from wheat, oats, barley, rye, semolina and buckwheat (crushed) - only 40 g, 8 liters of water.

In an enamel saucepan, press the mixture for 3 days (at 240 ° C), drain and give to the patient about 600-700 ml per day, regardless of the meal.

Green forest bugs are the original folk method, which helps to cause a long aversion to alcohol.

For the recipe, you need 15 to 30 bedbugs, which you need to put in a bottle of vodka and insist 2-3 days.

Only 50 g of vodka causes a strong vomiting and long unwillingness to drink (the effect can extend from several months to several years).

Also, to form a strong aversion to alcoholic beverages, powder from the shell of boiled crayfish can be used.

The powder is added to the food (2 tsp together with the food) every time during the "drunken" feast.

Powder causes strong vomiting after each drink, reducing the craving for alcohol and aversion is formed by 3 - 10 times.

In addition to infusions and broths, one can try conspiracies and prayers. Such funds are usually used by relatives, reading independently or referring to the help of "grandmothers."

The strongest is the prayer of St. Bonifatia "From drunkenness", you can also read prayers and conspiracies in the church before the icon of the Mother of God "The Inexhaustible Chalice".

Also conspiracies are used, read over the person during sleep, which are a kind of "coding", it is believed that this method effectively helps to cope with a painful habit. Experts say that such conspiracies during sleep can really help, because at this time there is a direct impact on the subconscious (something like hypnosis).

Also help to reduce the painful attraction to alcohol sour apples (about 1kg per day), broth of leaves of bearberry (80g for 200ml of water, drink 1 tablespoon 5 times a day), mint drops (10g mint for 200ml of vodka, insist a week) . To reduce the severe symptoms of a hangover, you can use cucumber brine (for more effect, you can add crushed garlic and a pinch of black pepper), pickled cabbage brine.

Means of treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient

Treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient is necessary in the case when a person denies his dependence on alcohol and does not want to take help from relatives or undergo treatment. It is worth noting that this approach to treatment is quite specific, but if desired and perseverance, you can bring a person out of the binge and bring him back to normal life. Another advantage of treating an alcohol dependent without his knowledge is low cost, since the cost of specialist services and expensive drugs is excluded.

The main means of such treatment are infusions and decoctions of medicinal herbs, insects, etc., which in most cases cause strong vomiting after a dose of alcohol, thereby forming a negative attitude towards alcoholic beverages.

Also for the treatment, you can use special drugs that help overcome the addiction.

Drugs for the treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient

Among the medicines that help in the fight against alcoholism, several groups differ in their effect:

  • facilitating the symptoms of hangovers and the condition during the exit from a long drinking bout
  • reducing the desire for alcohol
  • Forming a negative attitude toward alcohol at the level of reflexes

Relieve or completely remove the hangover symptoms Medochronal, Alcazelzer, etc.

To reduce the painful desire for alcohol in our market there is only one drug - Proproten 100, however, the tool only helps in 50% of cases.

Drugs that cause a negative attitude towards alcoholic beverages are most effective in combating the harmful habit of a loved one, but the treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient with such drugs without the supervision of a specialist can provoke a number of undesirable consequences.

The most common drug from this group is Teturam (France), relatively inexpensive and quite effective. Teturam contains substances that block the splitting of alcohol and convert ethyl alcohol into a toxic compound - acetaldehyde.

Against the background of taking the drug in alko-dependent after the next glass there is intense vomiting, headache, tachycardia. Such a reaction to alcohol over time forms a negative reflex to alcohol, but, unfortunately, the drug has a short-term effect.

The domestic equivalent of Tetaurum is Esperal, which is more purified and has fewer side effects.

According to its pharmacological properties Esperal practically does not differ from Tetaurum.

Another drug from this group is Lidevin, which also contains disulfiram, which converts ethyl alcohol into a toxic compound.

Lidevin also contains vitamins and substances that help to cleanse the body and improve the functioning of the nervous system.

In the Spanish preparation this group of Coleme instead of disulfiram (enough toxic substance) uses cyanamide, which causes severe discomfort during the reception of alcoholic beverages.

This drug is non-toxic, harmless and quite effective, the only drawback is a high price (the treatment will cost in the range of 1000 UAH).

Herbs for the treatment of alcoholism

Herbs are the most common and cheap way to get rid of alcohol dependence. Herbs can cause a strong deterioration of well-being after another glass, so a natural mechanism of self-defense works - a fear of death overcomes the desire to drink.

There are a lot of recipes with medicinal herbs, among which are:

  • tincture Lobelia - contains alkaloids in large quantities, which cause symptoms of intoxication with simultaneous reception with alcohol. Use this tool carefully and observe the dosage. Usually only 5-6 drops are enough for 500 ml of vodka to provoke a decrease in pressure, strong weakness, nausea and vomiting.

  • buckthorn laxative - is also widely used for the treatment of alcohol addicts. To prepare the broth requires 15-20 berries and 200ml of water, on a slow fire boil for about 20 minutes. A bottle of vodka is enough 2 tablespoons. - after which the person will begin the strongest diarrhea.
  • Green tea is considered the easiest means of alcoholism and at the same time little known. Treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient is also simple - in black tea, when brewing, add 4-5 leaves of green tea, and add the steamed leaves to the food. After about 3 weeks, a person develops an aversion to alcohol.

Treatment of alcoholism with thyme without the knowledge of the patient

In alternative medicine, thyme or thyme creeping is used to treat many diseases, but few know that thyme effectively helps get rid of alcohol dependence.

In certain doses, thyme concurrently with alcohol causes intense vomiting and a sharp deterioration in well-being, which for a long time discourages the desire to drink.

Thymol contains thymol, which causes alcohol intolerance and provokes severe vomiting.

The course of treatment is 7 to 14 days. During this time, an aversion to alcohol is formed in the body.

To enhance the effect after each reception of the alcoholic liquor broth, it is necessary to give a little vodka (20-30g), which will cause deterioration of well-being and contribute to the formation of a negative reflex to alcohol.

It is recommended to give a freshly prepared broth daily.

In addition to the broth, you can give a man a tea made of thyme, wormwood and a thousand-ton.

To prepare the medicine you need to take 4 tbsp. Thyme, 1 tbsp. Thousand tons, 1 tbsp. Wormwood and mix everything, then 1 tbsp. The resulting mixture pour 200 ml of boiling water and let it last several minutes.

Usually after 2 weeks a person develops aversion to any alcoholic beverages.

Another effective tool is a decoction with thyme and oregano.

By 2 tbsp. Herbs pour 0.5 liters of boiling water, simmer for 10 minutes on low fire and insist for half an hour. In a state of intoxication, a person should give 1 glass of broth, then after 2 hours give a drink of the rest.

Treatment of alcoholism without the knowledge of the patient with thymus is contraindicated in diseases of the thyroid gland, diabetes, elevated pressure, ulcer, pulmonary tuberculosis.

Tablets for the treatment of alcoholism

Unlike alternative methods, tablets act faster and cause aversion to alcohol, relieve the symptoms of a hangover, reduce the urge to drink.

Today there are drugs that differ in the principle of action:

Against the background of taking pills, a person develops an aversion to the smell and taste of alcohol. It should be noted that it is better to take Cyamid under medical supervision and before the start of treatment it is necessary to withstand a "sober period" (not less than 12 hours).

The effect of anti-alcohol drops on the body:

  • koprinol - the composition includes the fungus coprinus, which causes symptoms of intoxication (redness of the skin, fever, increased heart rate, vomiting, etc.). The drug forms in a person aversion not only to the smell and taste of alcohol, but also to the appearance of any alcoholic beverages.
