Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is a pathological condition characterized by persistent and excessive alcohol consumption, leading to a diminished ability to limit or abstain from alcohol use despite adverse consequences in one’s social, occupational, or medical domain. The disease is characterized by several key symptoms, including:

  1. Craving – an intense urge to consume alcohol
  2. Loss of control – an inability to cease alcohol consumption once initiated
  3. Negative emotional state – feelings of anxiety and irritability when abstaining from alcohol

Several factors increase the chances of developing an alcohol use disorder, such as Family history of substance abuse and alcohol use disorder, Accessibility of alcohol, Excessive alcohol consumption, Binge drinking, Permissive cultural attitudes towards alcohol, Childhood abuse, Childhood conduct or mood disorders, Co-occurring mental health conditions such as depression and PTSD, Impulsivity. AUD is diagnosed through a comprehensive evaluation and assessment of symptoms, as outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. The severity of the disorder is determined based on the number of criteria met and can range from mild (2-3 criteria) to moderate (4-5 criteria) to severe (6 or more criteria). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved three drugs for managing AUD, including naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram, which aid in reducing alcohol consumption and preventing relapse.

  • According to a national survey in the USA, 14.1 million adults ages 18 and older (5.6% of this age group) had alcohol use disorder (AUD).
