This book has a much wider focus than traditional books written
about drug and alcohol addictions. This unique book is written by
medical specialists who diagnose, treat and research addictive
disorders in their specialities. Thus, it meets the needs of the
typical medical practitioner who wants to learn about and treat
patients with addictive disorders in their practices. Because
alcohol and drug problems are so prevalent and affect medical
conditions profoundly, the medical specialist will improve their
knowledge and skill to diagnose and treat addictive disorders in
their specialties.
Drug and alcohol addictions occur commonly in medical
populations; 25-50% of patients seen by primary care
physicians have alcohol and drug disorders, with even higher
prevalence in certain medical specialty populations. Drug use
(including illicit drug use and actual or perceived misuse of
prescribed medications), alcohol use, and what has been called
unhealthy drinking are even more common in trauma centers and our
society. Currently, there are no authoritative addiction texts that
focus on the identification, intervention and management of either
"addictive disorders in medical populations" or
"medical complications in addiction populations".
Neurobiological progress in the field of addiction has been
amazing and evidence-based treatments have developed at a
phenomenal pace, with bench to office applications for tobacco,
alcohol and drugs. Pharmacological and psychosocial treatments are
described here in detail and in practical terms. The medical and
mental complications of addiction are explained comprehensively
throughout the text. Clinical considerations are the predominant
theme, with the standards of clinical practice grounded in the most
current research. The chapters include practical presentations of
both clinical and research materials, with instruments for
screening and assessment and treatment.
It will be useful for all those seeking information to help a
patient or family with a tobacco, alcohol or drug problem. We hope
this book can give answers and direction to the identification and
management of addictions and their medical complications in patient
populations.
