A patient suffers from alcohol addiction when he or she can’t give up alcohol, even if he/she really wants to. Alcohol addiction has a strong emotional component: this means that, besides the physical addiction, there is a psychological one.

Alcohol addiction has a negative impact upon the individual’s life. Over time, it can cause various diseases, such as: cardiovascular disease, hypertension, stroke, liver disease (toxic hepatitis, cirrhosis), cholelithiasis (gallstones in the gallbladder), pancreatitis or various cancers. There may be also social problems occurring at work or home.

Alcoholism treatment success depends primarily by identifying and accepting that a person has a problem with alcohol abuse. Supportive treatment such as psychological counselling may be useful in the treatment of alcoholism.

The treatment should take into account the identification of psychological dependence on alcohol; in this case the treatment is based mainly on psychotherapy. When the patient stops drinking, there are certain symptoms (tremor, dizziness, psychomotor agitation). Along with treating these symptoms, it’s necessary to find effective methods to maintain abstinence from alcohol.

In some cases, when withdrawal symptoms are severe and don’t disappear after a certain period of time, it is necessary to administer adjuvant drug treatment, detoxification.
