First, he has to be serious about stopping for anything to help. Does he want to stop?
Second, does he know why he drinks? Is there a underlying problem he is trying to handle by drinking.

Too bad he will not consider treatment, it is more than stopping drinking, it is figuring out why and tools to help.

Other options:

AA - even if meeting he tried did not appeal to him, try different meetings.

Depending on where your son lives, here are other support groups beside AA he could check into. Does the hospital have a social worker or drug counselor who could talk to him about other support options?

Medications - there are medications that help with cravings or make you sick when drink (Antabuse) . But they only work if he wants to stop drinking.
