What is in the alcoholic drink liquid cocaine?
There are a variety of recipes. A common one is
- 1/2 ounce 151-proof rum
- 1/2 ounce Rumple Minze
- 1/2 ounce Jägermeister
- 1/2 ounce Goldschlager
Since this would involved close to an ounce of pure alcohol in one drink (exceeding by about 50% the amount in a single "standard drink") it is obviously an attempt to create a reasonably palatable way to get drunk in a hurry. "Alcoholic" drink is certainly appropriate. Only a person with an alcohol abuse problem would even think about drinking one.

What is the success rate of alcohol intervention?
That depends on a number of variables:
- The definition of intervention
- The skill and care with which the intervention is planned
- The individual who is the object of the intervention.
- The definition of success
- The source of the statistics
Intervention can be anything from threatening to move out of the home, to edicts from a judge, to a clinically planned and executed process involving family, employer, friends and other people important to the alcoholic. The last is the preferred method.
The individual must be in a mental state where he or she is vulnerable to the massed pleas of the people in his or her life. If their life is going fine, no problems that they can perceive -- and if they are the kind of person who actually isn't much affected by the cares and needs of others -- then the attempt is probably doomed to failure.
If "success" means getting them into treatment, then the rate is fairly high: probably around 50%. If it means completing a full course of treatment and aftercare, the success rate is substantially less.
If success is measured by continuous sobriety from the point of entering treatment until death (with, perhaps, one or two short relapses before continuity, it is probably in the 15 - 20% range at most.
The problem with statistics is that, by Federal Statute, alcohol treatment is seriously confidential. Furthermore, outcomes over time are pretty much a guess, since it is pretty hard to track people whose treatment was confidential to begin with, many of whom have no desire to remain in contact with the treatment facility. Thus, these are educated guesses based on the literature and our personal experience with people in treatment and their subsequent progress.

What is symboxin effects with alcohol?
We believe you mean Suboxone, which is used for opiate detox, and by some practitioners for long-term maintenance therapy.
Suboxone is an opiate agonist-antagonist, that is it provides some of the effects of opiates to avoid withdrawal, while counteracting the effects that cause you to get high. It is normally prescribed temporarily to help people stop using opiate drugs.
There is the potential for interaction between alcohol and suboxone, and some danger of overdose exists. The big question: if you're trying to get clean, what's the point in drinking alcohol. Since it affects the brain in ways similar to opiates, it will simply lead you right back to drugs and/or alcoholism.
