Objectives: Demonstrate the relationship between mental disorders and alcohol consumption in medical students at a university in Cajamarca, Peru in 2024. Material and methods: A non-experimental cross-sectional study was carried out. A sample of 154 students was taken to whom the DASS-21 questionnaire (Depression Anxiety and Stress Scales) and AUDIT (Alcohol Consumption Related Disorders Identification Test) were applied. The SPSS v.27 program was used in data analysis. Descriptive and correlational statistics were applied using Pearson's chi square. Results: No significant relationship was found between mental disorders and alcohol consumption. 96.8% present moderate risk consumption, anxiety at a medium level in 22.1% and depression at a moderate level in 20.8% and stress at a medium level in 13.6%. A significant relationship was found between sex and anxiety (p=0.004), financial support and predisposition to suffer anxiety (p= 0.041) and depression (p=0.053). Conclusions: No significant relationship was found between anxiety (p= 0.546), depression (p=0.194), stress (p=0.673) and alcohol consumption.
