Psychiatrist in NYC Dr. Edward Fruitman, MD explains the difference between Antabuse and Vivitrol – medications to treat alcohol addiction. The first is Vivitrol. This is an injection, which is given monthly, and is perfect for sufferers who can’t give up alcohol completely, for whatever reason, be it social reasons or work functions. The second medication is completely different — Antabuse. This is a pill which needs to be taken on a daily basis to be effective in the long-term. This is for those that want to stop completely and never wish to touch a drop of alcohol again.
