  • Title: Overview of pharmacologic treatment approaches for alcohol and other drug addiction. Intoxication, withdrawal, and relapse prevention.
    Author: Gorelick DA.
    Journal: Psychiatr Clin North Am; 1993 Mar; 16(1):141-56. PubMed ID: 8456040.
    Abstract:
    Medication plays an increasingly important role in the treatment of alcohol and other drug addictions, in part because many patients do not respond to existing psychosocial treatment alone. This article provides a conceptual overview of current pharmacologic treatment approaches, and covers all three aspects of drug abuse--intoxication, withdrawal, and relapse prevention.
