One of these new methods is the alcohol detox. In this method, the patient is made to stop the in take of alcohol. This method is not complete cure foe alcoholism. But it merely makes the patient to stop the intake of alcohol and also nullifies the effect of the alcohol inside the body, by alcohol withdrawal from the body.
