Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) shows promise in treating alcohol cravings, potentially offering a new tool alongside medication and therapy to combat alcohol use disorder.
Because TMS can activate brain circuits which improve executive control, it may help mitigate cravings for alcohol, which are a major challenge in alcohol use disorder.
Alcohol cravings are a key target in treatment as reducing these cravings can significantly lower the risk of relapse for individuals struggling with alcohol use disorder.
Current research supports TMS's efficacy beyond its FDA-approved use, indicating it might also be beneficial for treating addictions along with anxiety and depressive disorders.
