Abstract
The general objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of alcoholism in the commune of N’DJILI. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study carried out on the basis of a pre-established questionnaire, which made it possible to question people living in 3 districts of the commune of N'DJILI, on their habit of alcohol consumption, during the period from November to December 2016. The results found indicate that 432 people were interviewed including 372 men (86.1%) and 60 women (13.8%). In total there were 100 cases (23.1%) of harmful use and dependence on alcohol. The most affected age group was between 19 and 45 years old. Neighborhood 1 was the most affected, while the unemployed were the socio-professional category who consumed alcohol the most. Singles are the family group who are heavy drinkers, while weekend days have been retained as the days when there is more alcohol consumption. Beer was the most popular drink.
