BackgroundThis study is the first to examine longitudinal posttreatment outcomes of a placebo-controlled trial of varenicline for alcohol use disorder (AUD) with comorbid cigarette smoking.MethodsParticipants were 131 adults (n=39 female) seeking alcohol treatment in a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled, 16-week multisite trial of varenicline combined with medical management (MM). Timeline follow-back assessments of alcohol and smoking behavior were conducted at the end of treatment (4months), with follow-ups at 6, 9, and 12months. Outcomes were percentage of heavy drinking days (PHDD), percent of participants with no heavy drinking days (NHDD), cotinine-confirmed prolonged smoking abstinence (PA), and good clinical outcome on either NHDD or PA.ResultsTreatment improvements were maintained posttreatment. For the sample overall, PHDD or NHDD did not differ significantly by treatment condition (ps>0.13), but varenicline produced higher rates of PA versus placebo at 4, 9, and 12months (p
