This document summarizes evidence on reducing alcohol-related harm, particularly liver disease. It discusses international patterns of alcohol consumption and harm, highlighting groups that consume the most alcohol and are most at risk of harm. The evidence shows policies that effectively reduce harm include increasing alcohol taxes and prices, limiting availability and marketing. However, non-regulatory approaches alone are less effective. Public support for regulation is growing. Reducing consumption can have rapid health benefits, even for cirrhosis. The alcohol industry should have no role in policy-making given its vested interests.
