title: [Electrolyte metabolism in alcoholic patients during therapy and prolonged abstinence].
abstract: The author studied the dynamics of development of the Na+ and K+ content in the blood plasma, erythrocytes and urine in 82 patients with chronic alcoholism during the period of active antialcohol treatment. It was established that the content of Na in the blood plasma was decreased while its excretion with urine increased. Signs of mineral-corticoid insufficiency remained even 2--3 years following treatment.
