Objectives: This study was performed to examine the effects of disease diagnosis on reducing alcohol consumption behavior in Korean drinkers. Method: A face to face interview method questionnaire survey was conducted for 385 male drinkers(64.6%) and 211 female drinkers(35.4%). Results: The mean ages of respondents were 57.3±14.8 for the male respondents, and 60.9±15.0 for the female respondents. The AUDIT score(12.42±7.76) in male drinkers who did not reduce alcohol consumption because of disease diagnosis was significantly higher than the AUDIT score(8.09±7.96) in male drinkers who reduced alcohol consumption(p< .001). In male drinkers there was a significantly reduced alcohol consumption in cancer(76.9%, p< .001), cardiovascular disease(68.4%, p< .01), liver cirrhosis(63.6%, p< .05) than male drinkers who did not diagnose as a patient. In female drinkers alcohol consumption was significantly more reduced alcohol consumption in peptic ulcer(62.5%, p< .01), cardiovascular disease(42.9 %, p< .05) and diabetes mellitus patients(63.6%, p< .05) than in female drinkers who were not diagnosed as a patients. Drinkers who were diagnosed as patients were 5.1 times more likely to reduce alcohol consumption in cardiovascular disease, 4.2 times in cancer, 5.0 times in liver cirrhosis, 1.9 times in diabetes mellitus, 2.1 times in gastritis. Conclusion: Although drinkers who have diagnosed of fatty liver, hypertension, they did not reduce alcohol consumption. Therefore we need further educational programs, interventions and/or guidelines for the patients diagnosed with a disease.
