Summary

This study tests whether adding a smartphone app to standard medication helps Veterans with alcohol use disorder drink less heavily. About 330 Veterans will either get medication alone or medication plus the app. The goal is to see if the app makes treatment more effective and easier to access.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: To be eligible, Veterans must be: * 1\) diagnosed with an AUD and report 4 HDD * (defined as 5 standard drinks per day for men and 4 standard drinks per day for women) in prior 30-days * 2\) enrolled in VA primary care * 3\) planning to initiate MAUD, as determined by a medication order * 4\) between ages 18-80 * 5\) willing to be randomized * 6\) Android or iPhone smartphone owners Exclusion Criteria: * 1\) past 30-day participation in VA or non-VA SUD treatment * 2\) prior episode of MAUD receipt in the last 30 days (initiation of a new episode of MAUD in the 7 days prior to screening allowed) * 3\) plans to be or are pregnant * 4\) severe psychiatric symptoms or psychosocial instability likely to prevent participation in the study protocol, as determined by the referring provider. Veterans aged \>80 were excluded because ownership and use of mHealth apps decreases with advancing age. Participants who enter SUD specialty care following randomization will be allowed to continue in the study
