The AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) is the full, standard 10-question WHO screening questionnaire for alcohol use. The first 8 questions score 0-4 each, and the last 2 score 0, 2, or 4, for a total range of 0-40. This calculator is for general reference and educational purposes only — it is not a medical diagnosis. Consult a doctor or qualified professional for an actual assessment.
How it works
Answer all 10 standard AUDIT questions using the dropdown options. The tool sums your answers and classifies the total against the published WHO risk bands.
- Enter 1. How often do you have a drink containing alcohol?.
- Enter 2. How many standard drinks do you have on a typical day when drinking?.
- Enter 3. How often do you have 6 or more drinks on one occasion?.
- Enter 4. How often have you found you were unable to stop drinking once you started?.
- Enter 5. How often have you failed to do what was normally expected of you because of drinking?.
- Enter 6. How often have you needed a first drink in the morning to get going after heavy drinking?.
- Enter 7. How often have you had a feeling of guilt or remorse after drinking?.
- Enter 8. How often have you been unable to remember what happened the night before because of drinking?.
- Enter 9. Have you or someone else been injured because of your drinking?.
- Enter 10. Has a relative, friend, doctor, or other health worker been concerned about your drinking or suggested you cut down?.

Examples
A total score of 12

Who should use it
- A more complete self-screening before a doctor visit.
- Research and public health screening programs requiring the full instrument.
Industry applications
- Primary care and addiction medicine screening
- Public health research
Advantages
- The full, validated 10-item WHO instrument, more comprehensive than the AUDIT-C shortcut.
- Widely used internationally in primary care and research.
Limitations
- Longer than AUDIT-C, requiring more time to complete.
- Self-reported answers may under- or over-estimate actual drinking patterns.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Answering based on an atypical period rather than typical, usual drinking habits over the past year.
- Treating a high score as a diagnosis rather than a signal to seek further evaluation.
Best practices
- Answer all 10 questions honestly based on the past year for a meaningful, complete score.
Tips
- If your score suggests hazardous, harmful, or possible dependent drinking, discuss it directly with a doctor.
