Reaching Out for Help Getting Help for Drinking Problems Acknowledging that help is needed for an alcohol problem may not be easy. But keep in mind that the sooner a person gets help, the better her chances for a successful recovery. Active Ingredients of Alcohol Treatment Ensuring Solutions to Alcohol Problems, a research-based project at George Washington University Medical Center, has identified 13 active ingredients of effective alcohol treatment. Does Alcoholism Treatment Work? Alcoholism treatment is effective in many cases. Studies show that a minority of alcoholics remain sober one year after treatment, while others have periods of sobriety alternating with relapses. Still others are unable to stop drinking for any length of time.
