[Disulfiram in outpatient treatment of alcohol dependency].

CONCLUSION: Disulfiram proved to be a well-tolerated medication as part of multimodal therapy of alcohol dependency. The disulfiram program was easily integrated into other health service treatment. Approximately one quarter of patients who had had an unfavorable course before, achieved abstinence, while participation in group therapy was a major predictor of treatment success. Disulfiram is a medication, which in the context of a psychosocial treatment concept, should receive a wider distribution in Germany. PMID: 26122638 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
