The evidence
Grounded in research, not hype
Abstinex is built around treatments studied in large, peer-reviewed trials. The figures below come from the NIAAA and published JAMA studies — each one links to its source.
The scale of alcohol use disorder
- 27.9Mpeople ages 12+ in the U.S. had alcohol use disorder in the past year[1]About 1 in 10 people ages 12 and older — and most never receive care.
A large treatment gap
- 7.6%of people with alcohol use disorder received any treatment in the past year[2]Researchers note that effective medications for AUD remain greatly underused.
Oral naltrexone — what trials show
- NNT 12for oral naltrexone to prevent one person's return to heavy drinking, in pooled trials[3]A JAMA meta-analysis of 122 randomized trials (22,803 participants) found oral naltrexone reduced return to drinking.
- HR 0.72lower risk of a heavy drinking day with naltrexone plus medical management, over time[5]The COMBINE study (1,383 patients) found naltrexone with medical management improved drinking outcomes.
The monthly injection (extended-release naltrexone)
- 25%reduction in heavy drinking days with monthly injectable naltrexone vs. placebo, in the pivotal trial[4]A 6-month randomized JAMA trial (624 patients) evaluated once-monthly extended-release naltrexone (380 mg).
- 1 shot / monthextended-release naltrexone is given about every 4 weeks — no daily pill to remember[4]Administered by a healthcare provider; your clinician decides if it's appropriate for you.
