Alcohol

Uses

Alcohol is used as a preservative.

How it Works

How Alcohol Works Alcohol stimulates GABA at GABA-A receptors and inhibits the opening of NMDA receptor channels by preventing glutamate. As an antidote, it inhibits the rapid metabolism of methanol to toxic intermediates, such as formaldehyde and formic acid, due to its greater affinity for alcohol dehydrogenase. Thus, the toxicity of methanol is delayed or, to some extent, hindered.

Side Effects

Common side effects of alcohol include nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, tremors, impaired judgment, visual impairment, impaired coordination, slurred speech, and nystagmus (involuntary eye movement).

Expert Advice

  • Inform your doctor about your medical history (e.g., liver disease, kidney problems, etc.).
  • Notify your doctor if you consume alcoholic beverages.
  • Your healthcare provider will use this solvent for preparing drug infusions.
  • Alcohol may cause drowsiness, confusion, and stumbling.
