Baclofen: A French Cardiologist's Journey to Battling Alcoholism

Baclofen, as prescribed under adopters' care, could possibly free many addicts from the tragic and debilitating illness.
Imagine finding a way to silence the relentless cravings of alcoholism. That's precisely what French cardiologist Olivier Ameisen achieved with Baclofen, an antispasmodic drug. In this episode, Ms.B - Goddess of Empathy, dives into Ameisen's compelling story. After suffering severe consequences from his addiction, including broken bones and kidney issues, Ameisen decided to take matters into his own hands. He wrote himself a prescription for Baclofen and gradually increased the dosage until his cravings vanished.
His groundbreaking experience led him to pen 'The End of My Addiction', a book that has now inspired France to approve Baclofen as a treatment for alcoholism. Ms.B unpacks the clinical benefits and potential side effects of Baclofen, offering a balanced view of this promising yet controversial treatment. She also sheds light on the broader implications for addiction recovery and prevention.
If you're curious about new advancements in addiction treatment or seeking hope for yourself or a loved one, this episode is a must-listen. Ms.B's empathetic approach ensures that the discussion is both informative and heartfelt, making complex medical topics accessible and engaging.
