Abstract:
Involvement of the family physician in the prevention of alcohol-related problems is described. Advice about risks in low-risk drinking is presented, as well as non-laboratory assessment of alcohol-dependency and of patients with increased risk of developing alcohol-related problems. The CAGE questionnaire, patterns of alcohol intake, and brief intervention among low-risk and high-risk patients are discussed.
