Alcohol use and alcohol-interactive medications among medically vulnerable youth.
Information about the prevalence of alcohol use among youth with chronic medical conditions (YCMCs) who take alcohol-interactive (AI) medications is scant. This study attempts to address gaps and inform interventions by quantifying simultaneous exposure to alcohol use and AI medications among YCMCs. Participants were adolescents with a variety of chronic conditions: type 1 diabetes, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, moderate persistent asthma, cystic fibrosis, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, inflammatory bowel disease. Participants completed an electronic survey designed to measure prevalence of exposure to AI medications and associations with alcohol usage in the past year. Many of the participants reported alcohol use, but drinking was less likely among those who took AI medications. The authors conclude that perceptions about alcohol-medication interference mediated the association between drinking and AI medication exposure.
