Mullica Hill, NJ – [16-08-2024] – As an essential resource for those affected by alcohol use disorders, Lifetime Recovery Center at 124 Bridgeton Pike, Mullica Hill, NJ 08062, is dedicated to providing critical information on the effects of alcohol poisoning. This press release aims to clarify how long alcohol poisoning lasts, the importance of prompt medical intervention, and the comprehensive care available at Lifetime Recovery Center.
Understanding alcohol poisoning

Alcohol poisoning occurs when excessive alcohol consumption leads to a dangerously high blood alcohol level. This severe condition impairs the body’s vital functions, including breathing, heart rate, and body temperature regulation. Symptoms of alcohol poisoning include confusion, vomiting, seizures, slow or irregular breathing, and hypothermia. Immediate medical intervention is crucial to treat these symptoms and prevent serious complications or death.

Duration of alcohol intoxication
The duration of alcohol poisoning depends on factors such as the amount of alcohol consumed, individual health status, and metabolic rate. Below is an overview of the typical duration of alcohol intoxication:

Immediate effects (1-6 hours):
The acute effects of alcohol intoxication are most severe in the first few hours. Symptoms such as confusion, severe dehydration, and impaired motor skills are prominent. During this phase, it is important to monitor the person closely and seek medical help immediately.

Metabolism and gradual recovery (6-12 hours):
The liver processes alcohol at an average rate of one standard drink per hour. As the alcohol is broken down, the concentration in the bloodstream also decreases. Symptoms may gradually subside, but residual effects such as fatigue and dehydration may persist. Constant medical monitoring is required to manage these effects.

Full recovery (12 hours or more):
Full recovery from alcohol intoxication can take up to 24 hours or more. During this time, it is important to treat any long-term effects and ensure that the person receives appropriate care to prevent future incidents.

The importance of immediate medical care
Alcohol poisoning is a medical emergency that requires urgent treatment. Delaying medical care can lead to serious health consequences, including brain damage, organ failure, or death. At Lifetime Recovery Center, our medical professionals are trained to provide immediate care and support to stabilize patients and prevent complications.
