This study explores types of alcohol and surrogates consumed, patterns of consumption, and reasons behind noncommercial alcohol consumption among alcohol-dependent patients in Belarus. The study was conducted in the Belarusian city Grodno in 2012 with 223 alcoholics admitted to narcological clinic using structured interviews. The results suggest that at least 20.2% of alcohol dependent patients regularly consume samogon and 11.8% of patients use surrogates, the most popular among which are medications with a high percentage of ethanol and industrial spirits. The belief that, according to quality criteria, samogon exceeds licensed vodka is the main motive for its consumption. The results of this study suggest the existence of the problem of consumption of noncommercial alcohol among alcohol dependent patients in Belarus.
本研究探讨了白俄罗斯酒精依赖患者所消费的酒精及替代品类型、消费模式以及非商业酒精消费背后的原因。该研究于2012年在白俄罗斯城市格罗德诺开展,对223名入住戒毒所的酗酒者进行了结构化访谈。结果表明,至少20.2%的酒精依赖患者经常饮用自制白酒,11.8%的患者使用替代品,其中最受欢迎的是乙醇含量高的药物和工业酒精。认为根据质量标准自制白酒优于许可销售的伏特加这一观念是其消费的主要动机。本研究结果表明白俄罗斯存在酒精依赖患者消费非商业酒精的问题。
