  • Title: Long-term use of aversive drugs in outpatient alcoholism treatment.
    Author: Ojehagen A, Skjaerris A, Berglund M.
    Journal: Acta Psychiatr Scand; 1991 Aug; 84(2):185-90. PubMed ID: 1950615.
    Abstract:
    In a 2-year outpatient treatment programme for alcoholics, 90% of the patients used aversive drugs during some part of the treatment period. Long-term use was significantly related to a favourable drinking outcome during 2 years subsequent to treatment compared with short-term use. Long-term and short-term users did not differ in background data. Continued use of aversive drugs after the first 6 months might have been critical for favourable outcome.
