I Drink Alcohol, but How Do I Know if I'm Addicted to It?
Many people enjoy an occasional beer or glass of wine, but for some, that glass can be part of a bigger problem. Here’s how to know if you’ve crossed that line.
Maintenance Medication
Medication maintenance treatment plans for Opioid Use Disorder include:
- Buprenorphine/Naloxone (Suboxone, ZubSolv, etc.)
- Naltrexone (Vivitrol, etc.).
Medication maintenance treatment plans for Alcohol Use Disorder include:
- Naltrexone (Vivitrol, etc.)
- Acamprosate
- Off-label medications with significant evidence for the treatment of Alcohol Use Disorder (Topamax, gabapentin, etc.)
Studies show that treatment approaches including the use of both maintenance medication and therapy in an outpatient setting are critical to prevent relapse and help ensure a lifelong recovery. This evidence-based approach allows patients to return to the activities and lifestyle they enjoyed before their addiction.
