17. Psychology
Group therapy and psychotherapy are used to
treat underlying psychological problems
that are related to alcohol addiction, as well
as prevent relapse.
Alcoholics Anonymous is one of the
first organizations formed to provide peer
counseling.
Mutual support groups and counseling is the
most common form of helping
alcoholics maintain sobriety.
18. Psychology
Rationing and moderation programs do not
require total abstinence. While most alcoholics are
not able to limit their consumption of
alcohol, so some return to moderate alcohol
consumption.
A 2002 U.S. study by the National Institute
on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) showed
that 17.7 percent of individuals diagnosed as
alcohol dependent, returned to the low consumption
of alcohol.
The study found that abstinence from alcohol
was the most stable form of remission of recovering
alcoholics.
19. Medications
A variety of medications may be
prescribed as part of treatment
for alcoholism.
DISULFIRAM
Disulfiram is a drug discovered in the 1920s
and used to support the treatment of chronic
alcoholism by producing an acute sensitivity
to alcohol
20. CALCIO CARBIMIDE
Works in the same way as
Antabuse; it has an advantage
in that the occasional adverse
effects of
disulfiram, hepatotoxicity and
drowsiness, do not occur with
calcium carbimide.
NALTREXONA Is a competitive antagonist for opioid
receptors, effectively blocking the effects of
endorphins and opiates
21. Naltrexone is used to decrease cravings for
alcohol and encourage abstinence. Alcohol
causes the body to release endorphins, which in
turn release dopamine and activate the reward
pathways; hence when naltrexone is in the body
there is a reduction in the pleasurable effects
from consuming alcohol
22. BENZODIAZEPINES
Whilst useful in the management of
acute alcohol withdrawal, if used
long-term cause a worse outcome in
alcoholism. Alcoholics on chronic
benzodiazepines have a lower rate of
achieving abstinence from alcohol
than those not taking
benzodiazepines. This class of drugs
is commonly prescribed to alcoholics
for insomnia or anxiety management
23. DUAL ADDICTIONS
Alcoholics may also require treatment for
other psychotropic drug addictions. The most
common dual addiction in alcohol
dependence is benzodiazepine dependence ,
with studies showing 10–20 percent of
alcohol-dependent individuals had problems
of dependence and/or misuse problems of
benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines increase
cravings for alcohol and the volume of alcohol
consumed by problem drinkers.
Benzodiazepine dependency requires careful
reduction in dosage to avoid benzodiazepine
withdrawal syndrome and other health
consequences.
