Alcohol intoxication

Acute alcohol intoxication, or alcohol poisoning, can occur after drinking too much alcohol too fast. Some drinkers, or those sensitive to alcohol may become acutely intoxicated and suffer serious consequences after ingesting small amounts of alcohol.

Alcohol intoxication, also known as drunkenness among other names, is a physiological condition that may result in psychological alterations of consciousness. 

After  alcohol is swallowed, the alcohol is rapidly absorbed into the blood (20% through the stomach and 80% through the small intestine), with effects felt within 5 to 10 minutes after drinking. It usually peaks in the blood after 30-90 minutes and is carried through all the organs of the body.
