First seen Mar 07, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study tests whether repeated sessions of a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can help people with alcohol use disorder reduce their heavy drinking days. About 312 adults who want to cut back on alcohol but not necessarily quit completely will receive either real or sham stimulation over 12 weeks. The goal is to see if this clustered approach works better than current medications, which have limited effects and side effects.
