[Alcoholism in the aged (author's transl)].
Authors relate their experiences on the processes to alcoholism in advanced age groups. They are responsible for the care of 64 alcoholic patients of 60 years of age and above. On the basis of positive experiences they propose in the case of old people an Antabus treatment of decreased dose and a development of clubtherapy. They also consider of worth trying a suggestion aiming at placing old age alcoholics in a special home for the aged for the time of a temporary treatment.
