Introduction: Contemporary international addictology, as a neuroscience, concentrated a large array of theoretical and applied knowledge about alcohol dependence pathogenetic mechanisms, exogenous and endogenous intoxication leading role, urgent states of alcohol genesis, decompensated detoxification mechanisms. This fact is of key importance in the development, testing and accumulation of numerous treatment modalities for alcohol dependence conditions and urgent relief in addictology practice. Unfortunately, not all proposed therapeutic programs stand the test of time for effectiveness. Objectives: Based on the analytical review of the principles of intensive elimination of post-alcohol disorders, to develop an innovative method of complex detoxification therapy for emergency conditions of alcohol genesis (withdrawal syndrome, dipsomania, pre-delirious and delirious conditions, etc.). Methods: International tests and scales for identification of alcohol dependence and its complications as emergency conditions. Follow-up control of laboratory, biochemical, electrophysiological and other studies. Results: An innovative method of complex detoxification therapy in emergency states of alcohol genesis (patent 20470, UA) by plasmapheresis method is developed, which is specific for membrane plasmapheresis with a dosed blood plasma removal volume of 600.0-1000.0 ml, and directly pre-treatment drip-feed intravenous administration of 200.0-400.0 ml Rheosorbilact or Sorbilact (by new prescription), 2.0-3.0 ml nicotinic acid intramuscularly, and medical oxygen inhalation for 5-10 minutes, every other 3 days procedure, 2-3 procedures tolally per treatment. Conclusions: The proposed detoxification method quickly and effectively reduces emergency clinical manifestations (eg., alcohol withdrawal syndrome with predilirious condition after prolonged binge drinking) and normalizes laboratory, electrophysiological and other parameters (middle weight molecules content, malondialdehyde level).

Introduction: Currently, alcohol dependence is characterized by immediate onset of dipsomania states (code F10.26, ICD-10) interpreted in clinical addictology as reliable diagnostic signs of morbid alcohol dependence. These are classified clinically by rate, severity, therapeutically resistant post alcohol comorbidities (alcoholinduced polyneuropathy, hepatic dysfunctions, etc.), and by the presence of "lucid spaces", when patients, depleted physically and mentally by hypertoxic alcohol abuse states, periodically (after binge drinking) intake no alcohol. Objectives: Effectiveness improvement and reducing time of treatment for hypertoxic alcohol abuse states by reasonable pathogenetic use of highly effective drugs, wide polymodality and synergistic pharmacological range, with few side effects, potential for inclusion to the conventional standard treatment patterns according to thiamine concepts. Methods: Valid clinical-diagnostic, laboratory, biochemical, electrophysiological, psychological (scaling, testing), statistical methods for identification of alcohol dependence complicated by hypertoxic alcohol abuse states. Results: A new method of alleviating the hypertoxic intoxication in alcohol dependence has been developed on representative clinical material, which involves conventional pharmacological and drugfree symptomatic remedies and methods. Along with psychotherapeutic potentiation, a therapeutically targeted pharmacological complex was prescribed: intramuscular Vitaxon № 10 per course; Sibazon 0.5% solution, 2 ml intramuscular, 3-5 injections per course; oral Phenazepam, one tablet (0.001g) twice a day for 10-14 days; Cocarnit one ampoule daily intramuscular injection, for a course of 3-10 injections. Conclusions: The effectiveness of the proposed pharmacological complex has been proven by the statistical reliability method and illustrated by clinical examples of patient-specific research.
