520 _aWith the aging of the population, it is necessary to implement prevention policies aimed at maintaining the elderly in good health and promoting their autonomy. Alcohol consumption is an avoidable risk factor in deteriorating health and loss of autonomy that can be addressed through targeted public health policies. We must consider both the long-term effects, by informing young people of the risks to their future health, and the deleterious short-term effects (accidents, falls) for older subjects. Even if there are recommendations for alcohol consumption issued by Santé Publique France, they are aimed at the general population and do not take into account the specificities of the elderly, whose vulnerability will depend both on current consumption and on the history of alcohol use during their lives. Several countries have issued recommendations specifically for this population, but the definitions of alcohol units vary from one country to another, making it very difficult to apply these recommendations in France. A public health policy specifically addressing the alcohol consumption of seniors in France is therefore absolutely crucial.
