Studies by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) have reported that alcoholics have difficulty sleeping and spend less time in the most important phase of sleep known as REM (rapid eye movement).
Patients with the Hepatitis C Virus are often treated with an antiviral substance called interferon. Interferon is not as effective in patients who abuse alcohol.
Heavy bouts of drinking can result in an individual experiencing a condition that is commonly referred to as a"hangover", which may include headache, nausea, shakiness, and sometimes vomiting. This condition is due partly to alcohol poisoning and partly to the body's reaction to withdrawal from alcohol. There is currently no effective cure for this condition beyond refraining from heavy alcohol consumption.
An alcohol blackout is an amnesia-like period that is often associated with drinking. When an individual is experiencing a blackout, they may appear to be functioning normally, but later, the person is very likely to have absolutely no memory of occurrences.
