Evidence has been limited on the use of antidepressant medications in patients with co-occuring
depression and alcohol use disorder (AUD). However, meta-analysis study has shown that

The positive reinforcing effects of substances and pleasurable behaviors due to dopaminergic
projections from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus accumbens (NAcc) represents
the neural mechanism most consistently implicated in the development of addiction, especially in
early stages. The NAcc along with the olfactory tubule are located in the ventral striatum. The
dorsal raphe nucleus is a midbrain cluster of serotonergic neurons, which may be relevant for the
effects of certain substances such as hallucinogens and MDMA, but is not as universally
implicated in substance and behavioral positive reinforcement.
