This study has been designed to assist the practitioner in the diagnosis and treatment of alcohol and drug abuse and addiction in clinical practice. Step-by-step-formulas for conceptualizing alcohol-and drug-related problems characterize each chapter. Specific syndromes and simple detoxification schedules are described and discussed within an instructional framework aimed at providing answers to a wide range of clinical problems. Topics explored include the psychiatric consequences of alcohol and drugs of abuse and addiction; the neurochemistry of tolerance, dependence and addiction; long-term recovery from the pharmacological effects of addiction to alcohol and drugs; the pharmacology of drug testing and the prevention of abuse and addiction to alcohol and drugs. Cannabis, central nervous system stimulants, nicotine, narcotics, sedative-hypnotics, hallucinogens, non-prescription medications and designer drugs are among the substances examined.
