Alcohol currently contributes to 5% of the overall global burden of diseases and injuries. Alcohol consumption results in death and disability at young age. Medicinal products approved for treatment of alcohol dependence syndrome include disulfiram, Naltrexone, Cyanamid and nalmefene. Variability of a patient-to-patient pharmacotherapy therapeutic effect can also be associated with genetic causes. Examination of the system of pharmacogenetic markers in narcology will be used to provide for preliminary prognosis of effectiveness and tolerance of medicinal products during personalized anti-relapse (supporting) therapy to support and prolong remission in patients with alcohol dependence.

Keywords: alcohol dependence syndrome, anti-relapse therapy, pharmacogenetic testing
