Someone just told me she thought she'd seen some cross-over uses for Campral. Campral is a drug used for alcoholics and apparently acts to balance neurotransmitters. Anyone have any info on it?

Interesting that it is an analogue of taurine, the stuff in Red Bull that people say aborts their attacks.
Quote:| Acamprosate calcium is a synthetic compound with a chemical structure similar to that of the endogenous amino acid homotaurine, which is a structural analogue of the amino acid neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid and the amino acid neuromodulator taurine. |
