When a woman drinks, the alcohol in her bloodstream
typically reaches a higher level than a man’s even if both
are drinking the same amount. This is because women’s bodies
generally have less water than men’s bodies. Because alcohol
mixes with body water, a given amount of alcohol is less diluted
in a woman’s body than in a man’s. Women become more
impaired by alcohol’s effects and are more susceptible
to alcohol-related organ damage. Considering that about one-third
of American women report regular alcohol consumption (1) and
2.3 percent, or 2.5 million women, meet the criteria for alcohol
dependence (2), it is clear that research to better understand
the effects of alcohol in women is critical. This issue of Alcohol
Alert summarizes some of the most practical implications for
women across the lifespan to come from that research. NIAAA,
2004, 6pp.

Advances in Alcoholism Treatment
-
More
than 700,000 Americans receive alcoholism treatment on any given
day. However, the techniques of alcoholism therapy have traditionally
been based on clinical experience and intuition, with little
rigorous validation of their effectiveness. Over the past 20
years, modern methods of evaluating medical therapies have been
increasingly applied to alcoholism treatment. These methods
include the use of control groups for comparison purposes, random
assignment of study participants to different treatment groups
and, to the greatest extent possible, followup of all patients
who entered the study. This issue focuses on the results of
recent controlled clinical studies on the effectiveness of self-help
groups, psychosocial approaches, and medications in achieving
and maintaining abstinence. NIAAA, 2000, 4pp.

- Nonmedical
Use of Prescription Pain Relievers: NSDUH Report
-
In
2002, SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health found
that almost 30 million persons aged 12 and older (13%) had used
prescription pain relievers nonmedically at least once in their
lifetime. The numbers of persons using prescription pain relievers
nonmedically for the first time increased from 600,000 in 1990
to more than 2 milliion in 2001. About 1.5 million persons aged
12 or older were dependent on or abused prescription pain relievers
in 2002. This NSDUH Report is based on SAMHSA's National Survey
on Drug Use and Health, the primary source of information on
the prevalence, patterns, and consequences of drug and alcohol
use and abuse in the general U.S. civilian non institutionalized
population, age 12 and older. SAMHSA, 2004, 3pp.
