dc.description.abstractAlcohol withdrawal is a syndrome occurring in people with longstanding high risk drinking who either stop or substantially decrease alcohol consumption. The symptoms include adrenergic overactivity, central nervous system (CNS) excitation and gastrointestinal disturbance. The risk of withdrawal is greater with higher levels of alcohol use, previous episodes of withdrawal and concurrent health problems including cessation of other drugs. Withdrawal ranges in severity from trivial to life-threatening, tending to greater severity with successive episodes.en_AU
