The article considers the actual problem in modern medicine, the study of psychiatric symptoms associated with addictive disorders on the background of alcohol abuse in the elderly. It is shown that neurotic pathology in elderly patients with alcohol dependence is characterized by the presence of six major symptoms, reflecting the excitation processes, overcoming compensation, deficit symptoms, irritation and stabilization of the pathological state. It is proved that Cytoflavin, maintaining a certain level of excitement in the cerebral cortex, provides the optimal voltage of compensatory mechanisms in older people in overcoming their psychiatric symptoms, connected with addictive disorders.

Background: Women involved in the criminal legal system have elevated rates of opioid use disorder, which is treatable, and HIV, which is preventable with pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). There are significant social and structural barriers to integrated delivery of PrEP and medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), limiting women's ability to access these life-saving interventions. In a two parallel-arm randomized controlled trial, we are assessing an innovative eHealth delivery model that integrates PrEP with MOUD and is tailored to meet the specific needs of women involved in the criminal legal system.
