Abstract
|
|
|
|
Smoking continues to be as great a hazard to global health as alcohol use. Tobacco (nicotine) and alcohol dependence share a high degree of co-morbidity and interact across many levels of analyses involving potentiated reinforcement. The co-use of these two addictive substances accelerates ’synergistic adverse effects’, such as the development of various types of cancer and cognitive impairment. Accordingly, critical steps in the process of smoking cessation treatment may require an understanding of the interaction between alcohol and tobacco dependence. This review discusses how to utilize knowledge of alcohol and tobacco interactions to encourage smoking cessation in alcohol-dependent smokers.
