A very poor clue, best I can think is...

No, I'm hoping someone can see something better than my poor try.

Can parse everything except the 'f'. Oversight by the setter ?

In 2013 a very similar clue was used - Cut out alcohol and start to forestall beastly complaint.
That works better. I wonder if someone tried to vary it slightly and mucked up?

It's the 'f' being queried, yes - possibly error.
