TY - JOUR PY - 1978// TI - Detoxification of 1,024 alcoholic patients without psychoactive drugs JO - JAMA journal of the American Medical Association A1 - Whitfield, C. L. A1 - Thompson, G. A1 - Lamb, A. A1 - Spencer, V. A1 - Pfeifer, M. A1 - Browning-Ferrando, M. SP - 1409 EP - 1410 VL - 239 IS - 14 N2 - Most community-referred, ambulatory chronic alcoholics can be detoxified quickly and safety without the use of psychoactive drugs, according to our data. We believe such detoxification can be done most efficiently in a social setting, with the aid of a staff who will provide reassurance and reality orientation and who will monitor the patients' vital signs, general condition, and any specific problems.
