“…Results from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of baclofen in alcohol dependent participants have been mixed, with some positive studies reported (Addolorato et al, ; Addolorato et al, ; Morley et al, ; Müller et al, ) while several other studies failed to demonstrate any significant effect (Garbutt, Kampov‐Polevoy, Gallop, Kalka‐Juhl, & Flannery, ; Morley et al, ) even when high doses of baclofen (up to 180 mg/day) were used (Beraha et al, ; Reynaud et al, ). Meta‐analyses conclude that baclofen seems to be an effective treatment for AUD whereby high doses (>60 mg) were not more effective than low doses of baclofen (30–60 mg) although this may be explained by low tolerability (Pierce, Sutterland, Beraha, Morley, & van den Brink, ).…”
