Detailed Description: The study design consists of a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial of IBUD (50mg twice a day) for the treatment of AUD. The investigators will randomize 132 treatment-seekers with current AUD over the course of 4 years. Participants will complete telephone screening, followed by in-person eligibility assessment, a physical exam for medical eligibility, randomization to study medication or matched placebo, and in-person follow-up visits at 4, 8, and 12 weeks of treatment. Timeline Followback (TLFB) assessment of drinking outcomes will also occur by telephone on weeks 2, 6, and 10. A final safety check visit will occur on week 16, consisting of repeated clinical labs and electrocardiography (ECG).
