Drug use risk test

Would you like to find out how risky your drug use is? With this special test called DUDIT, you can check for yourself!

DUDIT gives you an overall assessment of the possible problems and disadvantages related to your drug use. You’ll also get information about where you can turn to in order to get support and help if you want to reduce or stop your drug use.

The test has eleven questions related to your drug use. You’re also asked to tell your sex and age. Please answer the questions as correctly and honestly as possible – otherwise the feedback will make no sense for you. On page 2 you’ll be asked nine voluntary extra questions.

Your answers will be stored in a database only for general statistical reasons. No personal information will be saved nor can you be identified by your answers.

DUDIT is a scientifically validated test and has been being used by many professional drug counsellors for years.
