About this study
This trial is testing a new way to treat moderate to severe alcohol use disorder (AUD) in the emergency department. It combines brief counseling with medications like naltrexone or gabapentin, given as an injection or pill. The goal is to see if this approach helps people stay engaged in treatment and reduce heavy drinking days after their visit to the ED.
