Abstract

Objective: To analyze a number of factors related to alcohol- dependent relapse in patients who have been treated at the National Institute of Mental Health. Subjects and methods: A follow-up study, analyzing several factors related to alcohol-dependent relapse in patients at hospital, at the point of one month, three months and six months after being discharged from the hospital. Results: 71.29% of study subjects relapsed after detoxification, the highest rate of relapse in the first month after treatment (35.64%). The reason for relapse was mainly due to craving (76.39%). A family history of alcohol abuse and dependence, patients’ family who did not oppose alcohol use, stress, and the simultaneous occurrence of depressive disorders increase the rate of relapse. Conclusion: There are many factors related to the relapse of alcohol dependence so that patients after being discharged from the hospital should be treated for long-term relapse prevention in the community.
