Summary

This is a randomized clinical trial to examine the effects of a brief counseling intervention for heavy drinking HIV-infected men who have sex with men compared to HIV care as usual. The study tests the hypothesis that brief counseling will lower drinking in these patients and that reductions in drinking will be associated with better HIV-related outcomes.
