戒酒辅助/支援


Explanation:
This website provides information on Vitamin D: http://www.mycustompak.com/healthNotes/Supp/Vitamin_D.htm

Scroll down to the Rating table and click on "Alcohol Withdrawal Support".

"..Alcohol withdrawal typically becomes difficult only when problem drinkers—alcoholics—attempt to quit."

Therefore, I think it has to do with 戒酒几 more than 醒酒.

When we talk about alcohol withdrawal support, there are many kinds of "support" available, such as medicine, homeopathy, change of lifestyle, going to counselling groups, etc. Therefore, I would sum them all up with 辅助/支援.
