The CAGE-AID consists of CAGE questions that have been altered by expanding the scope of the questions to include drug use.

In previous studies of conjoint screening questionnaires on a convenience sample of primary care patients and a random sample of medical, surgical, and orthopedic inpatients, three of the CAGE-AID questions exhibited sensitivity and specificity rates of approximately 70%.
