Abstract
Paper 71: High-risk drinking (four standard drinks or more on one occasion) by midlife women (35 to 59 years) has doubled in Australia (between 1995-2013). These women are more likely to suffer Alcohol Use Disorders (AUDs), often presenting with an increase in brain damage, with comorbid psychological and physical disorders, and in need of long-term rehabilitation. Death by 50 years of age is fairly common.
