摘要
It has been commonly accepted that dehydration was characteristic of the acute withdrawal syndrome in the alcoholic. Careful study by the authors has shown this not to be true. Furthermore, they believe that the use of a diuretic, furosemide, is beneficial in hastening recovery. This is important to the practitioner who is increasingly called upon to assume responsibility for the medical emergency of acute alcoholism. © 1969 Southern Medical Association.
