Written for professionals working with substance abusers (DA), this is a comprehensive clinical primer on diagnosis & treatment. Non-encyclopedic, yet thorough in approach, the book covers all commonly abused substances, as well as the modalities most frequently used in treatment of SA. It describes history-taking when substance abuse is an issue, interpretation of toxicology results, principles of diagnosis, & a spectrum of treatment programs to which SA may be referred. Also reviews emergency problems such as the management of drug-toxic states, surgery on DA, & caretaking of pregnant SA. Clinical advice is tailored to the managed care context & takes into account the reality that persons often abuse multiple substances.
