Summary
This study tests whether a drug called donepezil, combined with cognitive training (brain exercises), can help people with alcohol use disorder drink less heavily. About 160 adults aged 18-80 who currently have alcohol use disorder and have had at least one heavy drinking day in the past month will participate. The study is double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who gets the real drug versus a placebo.
