I would first have the alternator checked by an auto electrician to ensure it is working correctly and is providing the correct volume of current. It may be faulty and when driving you will be drawing battery power instead of power from the alternator to run the electrics. This will drain the battery.
Alternators do not last forever and if you are still running the original unit it is likely to be on it's last legs and you will need a replacement unit.
You Can Test An Alternator By Starting The Vehicle And Then Unhooking The Battery. If The Vehicle Stalls Then The Alternator Needs Replacement. A Second Battery Would Need A Source Of Charge So Unless You Want To Fork Out A Lot Of Money No.
