Alcohol Treatment Methods
Most alcohol treatment centers claim a 5-15% success rate. Treatments for alcohol dependency fall into a couple of categories. Some use counseling to attempt to manage the desire to drink. Others try to chemically suppress the craving to drink, like a diet pill. The most well-known method is Antabuse which makes drinking so miserable the person doesn’t want to drink anymore. The Sinclair Method has a 78% long-term success rate and is extremely simple to implement. You will not hear of this method at any fancy detox center because it is cheap and they would lose too much revenue.
One Little Pill A Movie About Alcohol Addiction
One Little Pill is a movie about The Sinclair Method. This documentary film is about the use of generic medications for treating and curing alcoholics. The primary focus is on The Sinclair Method, which pairs these medications with continued drinking. You can watch the movie for free here. The movie was produced and narrated by Claudia Christian, a well-known actress, who credits The Sinclair Method(TSM) for saving her life in 2009 from alcohol addiction.
How The Sinclair Method Cures Alcohol Addiction
Pharmacological extinction is the use of an opiate blocker to turn habit-forming behaviors into habit-erasing behaviors. This is what TSM is based on and why it has such a good success rate. The effect returns a person’s craving for alcohol to its pre-addiction state. Claudia Christian had failed just about every alcohol addiction recovery method until she found TSM in 2009.
TSM consists of taking Naltrexone one hour before your first drink of the day for the rest of your life as long as you continue to drink. Naltrexone works by disrupting the body’s behavior/reward cycle causing you to want to drink less instead of more.
How Effective is The Sinclair Method
TSM has been found to be equally effective with or without counseling in studies. Patients can choose whether or not to combine TSM with therapy because the physical results will be the same. This method usually works within 3-4 months. Twenty-five percent of people on TSM become 100% abstinent. Those who continue to drink will have to take their medication prior to drinking for as long as they continue to drink.
Loveland Medical Clinic Alcohol Program
The Loveland Medical Clinic uses TSM to help people with drinking problems. Our method is very simple. You come in for an initial interview and we do a physical and order some labs. We explain in detail how the entire process works. We use vitamin IV’s to beef up you body’s nutrient level. As long as your labs are normal we will call in your first prescription. We meet once a month for three months until extinction has occurred. At that point, we give you a years supply of medicine and we only need to see each other once a year. If you have a regular doctor you can explain to them what protocol you are on and they could write the prescription for you. The process is easy and does not interfere with your normal life. It is also cheaper than any addiction clinic you have ever been to. I do ask that you watch the movie first before you call us for an appointment. Take control back of your life!
