The Place of Pharmacotherapy in Alcohol Use Disorder Management in Family Practice - A Systematic Review.

CONCLUSION: Knowledge and prescription of pharmacotherapy for AUD, more specifically anti-craving treatment, is insufficient in primary care. There is a lack of data and studies on the efficacy of anti-craving treatment in primary care. Guidelines for AUD management, including psychological and medical management and pharmacotherapy do exist, but have not been adapted to primary care practice. Barriers and facilitators of pharmacotherapy prescription in AUD in primary care were identified in this study. PMID: 33059563 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
