Alcohol in any quantity is poison for the body. Therefore, it is important to remember that there is no safe dose. Even a minimal portion of an alcoholic drink has a negative effect on the condition.
Therapist Alexander Lavrishchev spoke about this, reports Gazeta.Ru .
As the doctor noted, the condition that makes people drink alcohol can also be called a sign of mild poisoning. We are talking about a feeling of relaxation, disinhibition.
Some symptoms include confusion, loss of orientation in time and space.
In addition, there may be nausea, vomiting, pallor, and the smell of acetone on exhalation.
In such a situation, you should stop drinking, take activated carbon or another enterosorbent. Immediately after this, it is advisable to go to bed.
If the situation is serious, it is better to call an ambulance.
You shouldn't confuse poisoning with a hangover. The latter condition involves headache, fatigue, nausea. But it's not life-threatening.
