Comments:
Acamprosate may be continued to be prescribed in Primary Care for pre-existing/historical patients, however no new patients should be initiated by, or transferred into, Primary Care.
Acamprosate must be offered in combination with an individual psychological intervention (cognitive behavioural therapies, behavioural therapies or social network and environment-based therapies) focused specifically on alcohol misuse
