Success Rates and Cost-Effectiveness

In sharp contrast to traditional inpatient, outpatient and 12-step treatment programs, which yield maximum success rates of 30-40%, the long-term (3 year) abstinence rates for severe alcoholics receiving the Peniston Protocol consistently reach 80%. Moreover, significant positive, measurable and durable personality changes have consistently accompanied these startling results.

Further, these dramatic results appear to be deliverable at a very reasonable cost (e.g., $4,000 - $6,000 total), particularly in comparison to the extremely high cost of traditional inpatient treatment programs (e.g., $2,500 - $9,000 per week, depending on complexity of diagnosis and whether or not detoxification is included).
