[Integrated treatment of alcoholism. Evaluation of its efficacy].

Patients with alcohol addiction are analyzed after one year from the beginning of therapy. Treatment is carried out by an Anti-addiction Service working in territory, an Hospital medical ward, anti-alcoholic clubs and Hospital voluntary groups. The method is described at first, then the answers of investigated patients, the abstinence period, the attendance to help groups, the use of drugs (disulfiram) and the emerged problems are considered and analyzed. More than one year later, patients with alcohol addiction who have followed this method are still in abstinence and have changed their habit from alcoholic to unalcoholic one, as just they have done for the behaviour and the relationship.
