Abstract

© Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.Heavy drinking patterns among adults are common in Ukraine (Webb et al. in Alcohol Alcohol 40(4):327, 2005). According to the WHO Global Information System on Alcohol and Health, the total recorded and unrecorded alcohol per capita consumption among adults (15+) in Ukraine was 14.3 (in liters of pure alcohol) in 2003-2005 which decreased to 13.9 in 2008-2010, with spirits being the main beverage group (48 % of all the alcohol) followed by beer (40 %) and wine (9 %). The 12-month prevalence of alcohol use disorders (including alcohol dependence and harmful use of alcohol) and alcohol dependence estimates (15+) among males were 9.3 and 4.2 % and females 1.1 and 0.5 %, respectively (WHO 2014). The same report found that the highest patterns of drinking score, i.e., the most risky patters of drinking, have been found in Russia and Ukraine.
