Rehab News: Ireland to review alcohol laws

The Irish government has announced plans to review laws concerning the sale of alcohol in the republic.

There has been increasing concern over the levels in binge drinking in the country and the sharp rise of those with alcohol addiction problems.

The BBC reports that there had been a 17 per cent increase in alcohol consumption over the past decade, and a 35 per cent increase in the number of off-licences between 2003 and 2005.

Brian Lenihan, minister for justice, equality and law reform, said a group would be set up to investigate solutions and would report back by March 31st this year.

The group will investigate whether the increasing number of special exemption orders allowing longer opening hours in licensed premises and the increased sale of alcohol is fuelling anti-social behaviour.

Research has impact for alcohol dependents who live rurally

Access to treatment for alcohol dependence is limited in rural and remote areas. A study was recently carried out which assessed the effectiveness of two drug therapies for alcohol dependence − the study evaluated the effect of naltrexone alone, and in combination with sertraline, among Alaska Natives and other Alaskans living in rural settings.

Results suggest that naltrexone is as effective on its own as it is in combination with sertraline.

Since naltrexone was ...

Phone counselling may encourage alcohol treatment

Telephone counselling can be a viable form of alcohol treatment, a study has found.

Researchers from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health found that men benefited from short-term telephone counselling, even if they chose not to pursue alcohol treatment.

The study, which is published in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, looked at nearly 900 men and women with alcohol abuse or dependence.

Approximately half of the volunteers received up to six phone counselling sessions, while the others were only given a pamphlet on healthy lifestyles.

Alcohol dependent men who received counselling reduced their total alcohol consumption over a three-month period and their number of 'risky drinking days' declined by an average of 31.8 per cent.

Meanwhile, the volunteers who only received self-help literature cut back by just 9.7 per cent over the period.

Lead researcher Dr Richard Brown revealed: "Once they had established rapport with that counsellor over the phone, many patients really looked forward to their sessions."

He said that the study shows that "we shouldn't just give up on those alcohol dependent patients who cannot or choose not to get treatment".

"If we can identify these folks in primary care waiting rooms and provide telephone counselling…we can start to help many of these patients," he concluded.
