  • Treatment: NIAAA-supported researchers have made considerable progress in evaluating commonly used therapies and in developing new types of therapies to treat alcohol-related problems. One large-scale study sponsored by NIAAA found that each of three commonly used behavioral treatments for alcohol abuse and alcoholism-motivation enhancement therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and 12-step facilitation therapy-significantly reduced drinking in the year following treatment. This study also found that approximately one-third of the study participants who were followed up either were still abstinent or were drinking without serious problems 3 years after the study ended. Other therapies that have been evaluated and found effective in reducing alcohol problems include brief intervention for alcohol abusers (individuals who are not dependent on alcohol) and behavioral marital therapy for married alcohol-dependent individuals.
  • In a recent survey of elderly patients with alcoholism, 30% of 5,600 elderly patients were found to have concurrent psychiatric disorders.
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol is one of the most serious dangers of alcohol use; over half a million people are injured in the U.S. every year in alcohol-related crashes, which is an average of 59 people per hour or approximately one person every minute.
  • New hangover remedies are currently being sold in pharmacies; there is nothing on the market today that is any more effective for a hangover than placebos, as many controlled studies have repeatedly shown.
