الوصف
Alcohol intoxication may be a possible cause of coma and also may mimic diabetic coma, cerebral trauma, and drug overdose. Ethanol is absorbed rapidly from the GI tract. Peak blood levels usually occur within 40-70 minutes on an empty stomach. Food in the stomach can decrease the absorption of alcohol. The half-lives and effectiveness of certain drugs such as barbiturates are increased in the presence of ethanol.
