영문 초록

Objectives ： This study aimed to identify the prescription rates and prescribing patterns of relapse prevention medications for patients with alcohol dependence in an actual clinical field. Methods ： In the present retrospective chart, we reviewed 109 in-patients with alcohol dependence in 2007 and 2008 ; and also carried out comparative analysis between the treatment group, who received anticraving medications and the group without the medications, with respect to their demographic and clinical characteristics and short-term treatment outcomes after hospital treatment. Results ： Anticraving medications were prescribed to 36.7% of the patients at the time of day of discharge of the index admission and amongst them only 25% continued the medica-tion for more than a month after getting discharged. There was a tendency of higher prescription rate of benzodiazepine than anticraving medication and other medications such as hypnotics were also prescribed considerably. Anticraving medication group had significantly less number of admissions and shorter total period of admissions before index admission. The group also significantly exhibited more tendencies to participate in the CBT program than those without anticraving medications. The medication group took significantly more time for re-admission after discharge. Conclusions ： This is the first study to provide details on the prescribing patterns of anticraving medications in Korea. There would be a need for further prospective studies to help motivate implementation of these medications.
