In my experience, yes. I previously took it for alcoholism. I found it very broad acting. I stopped drinking compulsively. I also became indifferent overeating, smoking cigarettes, sex, and pretty much everything else compulsive. I've heard of people using it off label to lose weight.

For me it is a very strong & powerful drug, but I also know of others where it did not seem to work. I've heard if you have a family history of alcoholism it is more likely to work.
