Brief Answer:
There is no such medicine which can help without patient motivation
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using health care magic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
I am sorry to inform you that there is no option other than patients willingness to quit substances of abuse like alcohol and tobacco.
Going gym is not enough as he already damaged his liver and running high cholesterol at this tender age.
If he is reluctant bring him to hospital and let doctors do their job to motivate him.
Regarding improving his health keep him motivating to change his behavior.
I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.

Do you suggest any medicine which I can add in his food which can help in quitting drink and smoke? and if yes are there any side effects??
Brief Answer:
There is no such safe and effective medicine
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Thanks for reverting back to me.
As I communicated earlier there is no such medicine which can help him without harming. You may get the advertisements like "bina bataye sharab chhudayen" but there is nothing such available considering the safety of medicine.
Few of the medicine used as deterrent have chance of fatality and I hope you will prefer not to risk his life.
I hope this gives you more insight.
Thanks and regards.
