Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment Guidelines

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) treatment guidelines recommend a personalized approach that may include behavioral therapies, counseling, and support groups to help individuals change drinking habits. Medications like naltrexone, acamprosate, or disulfiram may be used to reduce cravings or discourage drinking. Ongoing medical and psychological support is important to address underlying issues and prevent relapse. Treatment aims to promote recovery, improve health, and support a balanced lifestyle. Combining therapies and medications, tailored to each person's needs, increases the chances of successful long-term management of AUD.
