Title: [New data on sensibilizing therapy of alcoholic dependence]. Author: Ivanets NN, Kinkul'kina MA. Journal: Zh Nevrol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 2004; 104(7):43-9. PubMed ID: 15347034. Abstract: Lidevine was used in the treatment of 29 patients with chronic alcoholism with unsatisfactory results of previous therapy. The drug was included in the complex therapy at the stage of developing therapeutic remission and during a long-term (1 year) antirelapse treatment. Remission of 1-year duration was achieved in 12 (41%) patients. Use of lidevine contributes to remission stabilization and prevents development of alcoholism relapse after a single "break down". The importance of lidevine assignment in combination with psychopharmacological drugs reducing a drive for alcohol (antidepressants, anticonvulsants-normotimics, neuroleptics with sedative action, etc.), and a need of continuous control of the relatives of the patient over the intake of sensibilazing drug are proved. Good tolerance to the medication is shown.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
