Core Tip |
What is already known? Most people who drink heavily also smoke; alcohol and smoking synergistically increase aerodigestive cancer risk; people with alcohol problems and/or liver injury, are supported to attain and maintain abstinence, from alcohol but much less effort is employed to help them achieve smoking cessation. What is the key message? Patients who maintain abstinence from alcohol remain at risk for aerodigestive cancers for several years, especially if they continue to smoke. How might it impact on future clinical practice? Smoking behaviour should be addressed in co-dependent individuals if the health benefits of long-term abstinence from alcohol are to be maximized. |
