This reference manual is designed to assist the busy practitioner in the care of patients adversely affected by tobacco, alcohol, and other mood-altering drugs. Each chapter contains a brief state-of-the-art review followed by practical information derived from clinical experience, presented in outline form with tables, figures, and algorithms. This format allows the physician to find the needed information quickly and easily. The book focuses on ambulatory rather than intensive care, and topics include urine drug screening; medical withdrawal and detoxification; smoking cessation strategies; substance abuse in adolescents, women and elderly patients; affected family members; and the role of AA and community treatment programs. Appendices contain screening and diagnostic questionnaires, a self-help manual, patient education sheets, and a practice-based intervention protocol.
