Brief Alcohol Intervention to Reduce At-Risk Drinking Among Type 2 Diabetics

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: At-risk Drinking, Type 2 Diabetes

In brief

This study is designed to test an intervention to reduce at-risk drinking among Type 2 diabetic patients. At-risk drinking is associated with inferior diabetes treatment adherence and control. The investigators hypothesize that our brief alcohol intervention will result in a reduction in drinking and better diabetes treatment adherence and control. If successful, this intervention could help diabetics to gain better control of their diabetes and live healthier lives.
