Han BH, Moore AA, Ferris R, et al. - In this cross-sectional study of participants (n = 10,927 adults, aged 65 years or older) from the 2015 to 2017 administrations of the US National Survey on Drug Use and Health, researchers assessed the national prevalence and correlates of binge drinking. Out of 10,927 adults, 10.6% were assessed as current binge drinkers. A greater likelihood of being male, higher prevalence of current tobacco and/or cannabis use, and lower prevalence of two or more chronic diseases were observed among binge drinkers vs nonbinge drinkers. Among past-month alcohol users, a higher prevalence of binge drinking was reported in non-Hispanic African Americans vs whites, tobacco users, cannabis users, and those who visited the emergency department in the past year, as revealed in the multivariable analysis. Current binge drinking was estimated to be present in over a tenth of older adults in the United States. To minimize harms, screening for binge drinking behaviors among older adults is important.
