Alcohol relapse prevention for adults living with HIV
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at ways to help people with HIV reduce the chance of heavy drinking coming back after a period of lower-risk drinking. It will use regular patient-reported check-ins about alcohol use to understand relapse patterns and test the approach’s impact.
