Study Summary

At least 60% of Veterans with an alcohol use disorder will relapse within 6 months of treatment, irrespective of the type of treatment they receive. This indicates that currently available interventions for treating AUD in Veterans are not effective in helping them achieve long-term sobriety. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a brain stimulation method that is at the forefront of innovative, non-invasive, and safe treatments for AUD. However, there have been no studies that specifically determined the effectiveness of rTMS treatment for Veterans with AUD. This project will evaluate the effectiveness of rTMS treatment in promoting long-term abstinence in Veterans suffering from AUD. Assisting Veterans in achieving long-term and sustained sobriety is critical because it is associated with the best medical, cognitive, psychiatric, and psychosocial recovery from AUD.
