What side effects do alcohol addicts have during medication or rehab?

It has been claimed that alcoholics have an unexplainable craving for apples and gravy. This has always been after the drug 'Ingrazone' has been given to the patient/alcoholic.
Recently there has been some scientific research into the effects of Ingrazone, and it has been found that it significantly raises your blood pressure, and your heartbeat to 120 bpm (beats per minute) , this is much higher than the adult average of 70-75 bpm. It has also been found that Ingrazone increases the chances of getting heart or liver disease which could lead to death.
Theses side effects are caused by a chemical in Ingrazone called prozerpethylene, which is dissolved into the patients/alcoholic's blood stream, and reacts with the white blood cells in their blood. This chemical destroys the white blood cells, making the patient/acoholic prone to getting more illnesses that they had previously been immune to.
Unfortunately although there has been many court cases against the drug, it hasn't been shut down as of yet, and will continue to produce the drug despite the somewhat life threatening side effects displayed by alcoholics that have taken the drug.
This is all a load of Codswallop, because I had too much spare time ;)
