Alcohol Use Disorders (AUD) form a major public health issue in India. In a densely populated country with limited mental health resources, it is challenging to treat those with AUD appropriately. Detoxification is the first step in dealing with clinically significant AUD. Institution based detoxification is not universally available and home based detoxification is mired with poor outcomes with people resuming drinking behaviour. This trail therefore aimed to study the effect of a psychosocial intervention to improve the outcome of domiciliary alcohol detoxification. The intervention involved Brief Interventions for alcohol and daily telephone monitoring and psychosocial support of patients undergoing home detoxification.
