UrduHeavy alcohol use may be a key factor contributing to suicide among military personnel with untreated post-traumatic stress disorder.

The authors of the study, which is published in Alcohol: Clinical and Experimental Research, recommend that the military health system consider requiring screening for suicidal ideation and alcohol use in service members who may have post-traumatic stress disorder and further develop integrated treatment programs that simultaneously treat alcohol use disorder and PTSD.
