Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dutasteride in reducing drinking and heavy drinking in men and women with alcohol use disorder. The investigators hypothesize that dutasteride 1 mg per day will be well tolerated in this patient population and that, compared to placebo treatment, dutasteride will result in a greater reduction in drinks per week and in the frequency of heavy drinking days.
