The market for medications to treat alcoholism is estimated to be over 18 million people according to estimates by the pharmaceutical company that manufactures these medications; the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA)indicates that there are approximately 11 million people in the U.S. that are alcohol dependent.
Over a century ago, researchers in the medical community noted that alcoholic mothers produced children who could potentially have significant mental and physical deficiencies.
Genetic vulnerability coupled with a variety of environmental factors is the cause of most types of alcohol dependence; it is important to note that an individual must first make the choice to drink alcohol in order for the condition of alcoholism to develop.
An estimated 7 million Americans binge drink fall between the ages of 12 and 20.
