Irish alcoholic women in treatment: early findings.
Alcoholic women in Ireland, as in other countries, tend to drink alone and a minority are pub drinkers. There are scant data about alcoholic women who are treated as well as about the outcome of such treatment. A representative sample of women in treatment were interviewed based on consecutive admission to treatment centers in Ireland. The women will be interviewed again 1 year later. Drinking patterns, use of other drugs, parental drinking, and troubles associated with drinking are described.
