Summary

This is a pilot study designed to evaluate the efficacy of High Frequency (HF) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (L-DLPFC) at improving cognitive flexibility in recently detoxified individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) compared to placebo (Sham rTMS). The total number of subjects requested to be randomized is 20. The investigator will need to screen about 40 subjects to have 20 subjects started on rTMS session at a ratio of 2 screens/1 subject randomized.
