If our therapist determines that our addiction may be connected with underlying causes such as depression, anxiety, obsession, OCD, or even hyper-sexuality, he may send us to be evaluated by a psychiatrist for medication that can help us significantly in these areas.  The medications can truly make a difference in the long term.

If we’ve tried everything and still can't break free, perhaps we need some time to get away from society completely to be able to focus fully on recovery for a period of time.  The only way to break free is to be under supervision and be in a place where we simply cannot access our “drug” in anyway, for a while.

If all else has failed G-d forbid, and the addiction continues to ruin our lives, there are medications or shots that can reduce our sexual drive to the point of chemical castration. If the addiction is harming the lives of others, this should be done as soon as possible - before the next victim is claimed.
