This review synthesizes the pharmacological and psychosocial interventions that have been conducted in comorbid bipolar disorder (BD) and
substance use disorders (SUDs) while also providing clinical recommendations about which intervention elements are helpful for addressing
substance use versus mood symptoms in patients with these co-occurring
conditions. The best evidence from randomized controlled trials was
used to evaluate treatment options. The strength of recommendations
was described using the GRADE approach. Very few of the randomized
trials performed so far have provided consistent evidence for the management of both mood symptoms and substance use in patients with a
BD. No clinical trials are available for bipolar patients using cannabis.
Some treatments have shown benefit for mood symptoms without benefits for alcohol or illicit substance use. Our results suggest that 1) we
can (weakly) recommend the use of adjuvant valproate or naltrexone
to improve symptoms of alcohol use disorder; 2) Lamotrigine add-on
therapy seems to reduce cocaine-related symptoms and is therefore recommended (moderate strength); and 3) Varenicline is (weakly) recommended to improve nicotine abstinence. Integrated group therapy is the
most-well validated and efficacious approach on substance use outcomes
if substance use is targeted in an initial treatment phase
