DUDIT - Drug Use Disorders Identification Test

Your details

Sex affects the threshold for a positive screen. The DUDIT manual sets each cut-off two standard deviations above the sex-specific mean score in the Swedish general population, which gives 6 for men and 2 for women.
Count all doses, including oral, smoked, injected, or other routes. Choose 0 if you do not use drugs at all.
Impaired control over how much you use once you have started is one of the core dependence criteria.
This "eye-opener" question is a marker of physical dependence: needing to use early in the day to avoid withdrawal discomfort.
Include physical injury and psychological harm to you or to anyone else. Scored 0, 2, or 4 based on recency.
Concern from others is scored the same as Q10: 0 = no, 2 = yes but not over the past year, 4 = yes over the past year.
