How do you treat alcohol use disorder (formerly called alcoholism) without requiring total abstinence? This week, Dr. Paul Kolodzik returns to The AGEIST Podcast to discuss his pioneering work around GLP-1s: using these medications to help people reduce their alcohol intake. Drawing on his background in emergency and addiction medicine, Dr. Kolodzik outlines how these off-label uses can drastically reduce consumption, often by 60–70%, even in heavy drinkers. Learn why harm reduction, not abstinence, is a realistic and medically valid path for many and how medication paired with behavior change is reshaping addiction treatment today.How long will you live?
