덱사메타손은 알코올 갈망의 근간이 되는 스트레스 및 면역 체계 메커니즘을 표적으로 합니다.

2026년 9월 28일 업데이트: Helen Fox, Stony Brook University

알코올 사용 장애(AUD)가 있는 개인의 조기 금욕 동안 스트레스 및 면역 체계 변화를 목표로 하는 덱사메타손

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, proof of concept laboratory study to recruit N=70 (35 Males / 35 Females) non-treatment seeking, heavy drinkers with alcohol use disorder (AUD). It is hypothesized that randomization to 1.5mgs dexamethasone versus placebo will decrease alcohol craving during stress by decreasing basal cortisol, increasing anti-inflammatory cytokine levels and potentially normalizing the immune response to stress.

Alcohol craving as assessed using subjective report following stress exposure
기간: Change from baseline to +5 minutes following stress exposure

The 8-item Alcohol Urges Questionnaire (AUQ) will be used to measure alcohol craving. There are 8 items, each with a Likert scale response from 1 to 7 (1: Strongly Disagree, 7: Strongly Agree). Total possible score of 56. The higher the score the higher the alcohol craving
