Do Ayurvedic Medicines Help In Treatment Of Alcohol Addiction?

Hello sir, My query is regarding the Ayurvedic products like No Addiction,Zero Addiction which claims that a person can leave the habit of drinking by consuming it. One of my family member (male) is addict to alcohol , liquor and I don t think that he has enough will power to quit drinking. Due to this habit our family is suffering a lot. I want to know weather these medicine will help him or not. If not, what else could be a solution.

1.In Ayurveda we consider addiction under the topic of 'madataya' which means "intoxication"; Although madataya describes intoxication of any kind, alcohol was the original reference.

PS.Charak Samhita Chikitsa Sthan 24.

2. substitute for alcohol with similar efficacy but with no undesirable side effects include
. shrikhand assav
. kharjuradi manth
. counselling & family support
PS. Medicine which I usually prescribe in my clinic for the same is/are:
.shuddh kucchla [purified nuxvomica]: 120mg
ras sindoor: 125mg.. both taken with honey thrice a day.

3. apart from this,hepato-protective drugs: kasni, katuki, nimba,
amrita, bhringraj, bhuiamlaki: acts as hepato cellular regenerators,
immuno-modulators with anti viral activity which and helps improving
liver function due to side effects of alcohol.

4. No Pharma company will ever describe his/her product not to be authentic, they are in market to sell ,earn and publicise their compound, and now even Actors have jumped into this marketing business (reason is simple-easy money and common people easily get influenced by their presence on show)
