Sundhedsstyrelsens tiltag over for alkoholforebyggelse og behandling

Consumption of alcohol has major consequences for public health in Denmark, and many Danes still drink too much, given the health consequences. The Danish Health Authority supports the municipalities' effort with prevention of misuse of alcohol intake and treatment of alcohol-related disorders. Among other things, we monitor the prevalence of alcohol intake in the population, compose materials for counselling and financially support projects, which develop new methods for prevention and treatment in relation to alcohol. The Danish Health Authority withholds an ongoing focus on prevention of alcohol intake, especially among adolescents.
