Quick Drug Facts

Around 20-30% of the road accidents are caused due to binge drinking. Drunken drivers not only harm themselves, but also pose a major risk to the other motorists on the road.
Why is the absorption of alcohol slowed down when a person has food in the stomach? It is logical to think that food reduces the availability of alcohol to the stomach lining for absorption. However, since alcohol is absorbed more quickly from the upper intestine than from the stomach, it is more likely that food reduces the movement of alcohol from the stomach to the intestine. Alcohol does indeed reduce the rate of gastric emptying, therefore food delays the movement of alcohol to the intestine, and absorption is slowed down.
How are genes related to alcohol dependence? Genes form proteins in the brain. In the brain's neurotransmitter systems, proteins and enzymes (specialized proteins) are involved in the manufacture, release, and metabolism of chemicals that allow brain cells to communicate with one another. When such communication is disrupted between nerve cells in the "pleasure pathway", dependence on alcohol (impaired control over drinking) can occur. This disruption is probably caused by abnormal gene regulation of protein function.
Recent alcohol overdose deaths have prompted university officials to take another look at alcohol use/availability on college campuses. Duh! Hasn't alcohol always been a part of college life? The real challenge is to convince college students that alcohol can cause death! Amazingly, most college students do not realize the dangers of alcohol. Why is it so difficult to get a basic alcohol pharmacology course approved in university curricula? (The answer is: kids will be kids; I got through college while drinking, so my kids can; alcohol is not really that dangerous; beverage producers wouldn't really try to hurt my kid,...blah, blah, blah.)
