Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

According to guidelines family members can not force patient for de addiction. Same time if patient is having some psychiatric problem which is dangerous for him or family members he can be admitted in psychiatric facility for treatment and de addiction with family members consent.

For treatment you can visit NIMHANS, Banglore, which is apex institute for psychiatric treatment and de addiction.

Wishing you good health and all the best.
