Two categories of medications that have soared in popularity in addressing weight loss could eventually become impactful strategies in the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD). But the findings that suggest this potential has been observational to this point, meaning more targeted trials will be necessary before these therapies can be seen as a breakthrough.
