This study aimed to analyze the use of alcohol and emotional problems in patients with diabetes. The convenience sample consisted of 82 patients with type 2 diabetes in two centers of university extension in 2010. For data collection we used the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test and the Problem Areas in Diabetes. The results showed that 93.9% of patients had low risk for alcohol and 21.9% rated their emotional problems as relevant. We conclude that alcohol use and emotional problems are important variables for planning a diabetes education program.
