  • Title: [Blood pressure in the beginning alcohol withdrawal state (author's transl)].
    Author: Mall K.
    Journal: Med Klin; 1975 Mar 14; 70(11):482-4. PubMed ID: 1124027.
    Abstract:
    Blood pressure elevation was found to be a frequent cardiovascular symptom of the prodromal phase of alcohol withdrawal state: 21 of 25 patients (mean age 38 years) had hypertension (mean value 171/107 mm Hg) during the first two days of hospitalization, which returned to normal with the disappearance of the other withdrawal symptoms. Augmented activity of the sympathetic nervous systems is thought to be the most probable cause of blood pressure elevation in alcohol withdrawal state.
