Individuals who are dependent on drugs are more likely to have an alcohol use disorder than people with alcoholism are to have a drug use disorder.
Treatment: NIAAA-supported researchers have made considerable progress in evaluating commonly used therapies and in developing new types of therapies to treat alcohol-related problems. One large-scale study sponsored by NIAAA found that each of three commonly used behavioral treatments for alcohol abuse and alcoholism-motivation enhancement therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and 12-step facilitation therapy-significantly reduced drinking in the year following treatment. This study also found that approximately one-third of the study participants who were followed up either were still abstinent or were drinking without serious problems 3 years after the study ended. Other therapies that have been evaluated and found effective in reducing alcohol problems include brief intervention for alcohol abusers (individuals who are not dependent on alcohol) and behavioral marital therapy for married alcohol-dependent individuals.
Drinking is a problem if it causes trouble in your relationships at home or at work and if it interferes with your social activities.
Chronic heavy alcohol consumption has been associated with excessive blood glucose levels also known as hyperglycemia.
