ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method of treating alcohol dependence in which an ethanol solution is intravenously administered. The ethanol concentration is preferably about 5 to 25% by volume, and more preferably about 10 to 20% by volume. The solution is administered over several days in progressively decreasing quantities. For those treated for the first time, it is preferred that the treatment program extend over ten days. Patients previously treated who re-lapse into drinking can usually be effectively re-treated with a program lasting for a shorter period, such as for six days.
