The aim of this study was to analyze alcohol consumption and metabolic control in people with diabetes, before and after an educational process. This study was conducted with 37 persons with diabetes in two Basic Health Units (UBS), in Ribeirão Preto, SP. To obtain the data of the study, the persons responded the AUDIT questionnaire before and after an educational process in diabetes. As a result, it was observed that the average sum of AUDIT was low risk before and after the educational process. Was noticed a small reduction in score of 0.13 at the end of the process. Thus, it is evident the necessity of using a pedagogical model to address alcohol consumption integrated into the educational process.
