Abstract: | Rationale The available treatments for alcoholism are only modestly effective, and patients vary widely in their treatment response. Quetiapine, an atypical antipsychotic medication with antagonist activity at D1 and D2, 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A, H1, and α1 and α2 receptors was shown to promote abstinence, reduce drinking days, and reduce heavy drinking days in a 12-week double-blind placebo-controlled trial. |
