The Basics: Defining How Much Alcohol is Too Much
Show your patients a standard drink chart when asking about their alcohol consumption to encourage more accurate estimates. Drinks often contain more alcohol than people think, and patients often underestimate their consumption.

Glossary
Alcohol misuse: Drinking in a manner, situation, amount, or frequency that could cause harm to the person who drinks or to those around them. For individuals younger than the U.S. Minimum Legal Drinking Age of 21, or for pregnant females, any alcohol use constitutes alcohol misuse. Alcohol use disorder (AUD): AUD is a chronic, relapsing brain disorder characterized by an...

Support Recovery: It’s a Marathon, Not a Sprint
Most people with AUD can and do recover, and their individual paths to recovery vary widely. By highlighting the likelihood of recovery, you may encourage more patients with AUD to accept treatment or to reduce their drinking with or without treatment.
NIAAA Recovery Research Definitions
What is the definition of recovery from Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)? Recovery from AUD Recovery is a process through which an individual pursues both remission from alcohol use disorder (AUD) and cessation from heavy drinking 1 . An individual may be considered “recovered” if both remission from AUD and cessation from heavy drinking are achieved and maintained over time. For...
