Pattern of alcohol use associated with self-identified problem drinking.

Abstract

To estimate the pattern and level of alcohol consumption leading to problem drinking, the drinking histories of 70 early stage problem drinkers were examined. An average consumption of four drinks (54 g/ethanol), on an average of three days/week, was the pattern that best separated the phase when patients were problem free from the phase when their drinking led to problems.
