Among various intervention strategies, family-based interventions have emerged as essential components in the holistic management and treatment of SUDs. This study systematically reviews the scientific literature published between 2012 and 2024 to evaluate the efficacy of family-based interventions in mitigating substance use and enhancing family functioning.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Collection and Analysis of Data:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Three databases, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, were searched using a predefined strategy focused on the terms \u201cSUD\u201d and \u201cfamily-based intervention.\u201d Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving individuals with SUDs that implemented family-based interventions aimed at reducing substance use and required the participation of at least one immediate family member.
