Alcohol Use Disorder

Also known as: aud, alcoholism, heavy drinking, problem drinking, naltrexone, sinclair method, campral, acamprosate, antabuse, disulfiram

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) affects roughly 29 million U.S. adults and is under-treated because it's rarely asked about. Screening is a 3-question AUDIT-C; heavy drinking is >14 drinks/week for men or >7 for women. Clindle evaluates AUD over a confidential video visit and prescribes evidence-based medications: naltrexone 50 mg daily or the Sinclair Method (targeted dosing before drinking), acamprosate (Campral) for abstinence maintenance, and disulfiram (Antabuse). We order baseline liver labs, coordinate counseling, and refer for injectable Vivitrol. We do not manage acute alcohol withdrawal — DTs and seizures need in-person or inpatient care.
