Alcoholism

Alcoholism is caused by a transient large intake of alcohol that causes the central nervous system to excite and then inhibit, and then the medullary vascular movement center and respiratory center are inhibited. In severe cases, it can cause respiratory failure, respiratory paralysis and death. The disease has rapid onset and rapid progress, but if it can be treated in time, it can save patients' lives and reduce complications. Alcoholic dependence means that a person with chronic alcoholism can produce a series of withdrawal symptoms once they stop drinking. In fact, alcohol addicts are often poisoned. The incidence of alcoholism in China is lower than in western countries, but its incidence seems to have increased in recent years, and it should be taken seriously.
