How Many Drinks a Day Do Alcoholics Have? Alcoholics generally drink excessively, often much more than four drinks per day and in a manner they can’t control. Excessive drinking is a serious health problem for millions of people in the United States. Alcohol addiction, or alcohol use disorder (AUD), is one facet of problem drinking. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) provides 11 criteria for clinicians to screen people who potentially have AUD. Mild AUD is two to three of these; moderate is four to five criteria; and severe addiction meets six or more of these criteria. About 10 percent of American adults drink 74 or more servings of alcohol per week, indicating the severity of the country’s problem with drinking alcohol.
