Abstract: This review investigates the prevalence of Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) in Gujarat since it is one of the states of India with a strict implementation of prohibition. Gujarat's alcohol supply and consumption patterns have undergone substantial shifts, although the state's ban on alcohol still applies to rural areas, where regional variations are still common. This review investigates the variables that impact alcohol consumption, abuse, and mental health in addition to the connection between psychological health and addiction. The state's expansion, urbanization, and modernity may have an impact on trends in alcohol addiction, which is why the study emphasizes the necessity for focused preventive and intervention methods. Comprehending these dynamics can aid in the creation of therapies and support networks that are sensitive to cultural differences for Gujarati addicts.
