How to get rid of alcohol intoxication

“I got drunk again! And now your mom will come and cut me! Get up to whom I’m talking! ” Common situation? Well, it happens. And sometimes it is necessary to urgently sober up a person. At least for a short time. The network is full of recipes from homegrown specialists. Some of them are funny, some are impossible, or simply life-threatening.

Let's figure out how to get rid of alcohol intoxication by improvised means, without calling an emergency drug treatment. For they will not stand on ceremony.

Inside: drink, eat

1. Drink 0.5 liters of milk. In one gulp. They say it’s useful and sobering. Sometimes a person cannot swallow even saliva, what kind of milk? It helps a person already beginning to sober up well. Alcohol intoxication does not remove, but here is how the adsorbent can be used.
2. Alkaline water. To 1 liter of liquid add 1 tbsp. l baking soda, stir and give a drink. Helps restore the acid-base balance of the body. Yes, not every sober can swallow such a mixture, let alone drunk. Will not help. Only cause a gag reflex.
3. The juice. Orange, pineapple, tomato, apple. Not bad, but only to maintain water balance. Getting rid of alcohol intoxication will not help.
4. Lemon. Eat 3-5 pieces of fresh lemons at once. Have you tried the advisers themselves? Not only does it not help sober up, so also the gastric mucosa with such an amount of acid is simultaneously covered with a copper basin. Instead of such an extreme method, it is better to drink currant compote or fruit drink. And a liquid and a good dose of vitamin C. By the way, intoxication will not remove, only support the body.
5. Ammonia. To 250 ml of pure water add 4-5 drops. Stir and pour into the mouth of the “victim”. A very effective method based on shock therapy. You can not exceed the dosage, because you can poison a person instead of help. In order not to take risks, it is better to just give a cotton wool with impregnation to smell.
6. Fresh raspberries. They give to eat 300 g of berries. I wonder what effect this recommendation is based on. A drunk insole cannot swallow or choke altogether. A sober just can not eat, because even the liquid is taken by the body with difficulty. Fresh raspberries increase body temperature and nothing more. Getting rid of intoxication does not help.
7. Aspirin. Allegedly helps to sober up. What are you saying! But what about the ban on the use of any medication while intoxicated? In no case! The pill will help with a hangover, but not for sobering.
8. Pop. A mixture of sugar, soda and citric acid, known since childhood. In a ratio of 5 to 1 to 1. Stir in cold water and drink drunk. Again helps in the process of sobering up, does not solve the problem of intoxication.
9. Honey. Take 5 tsp. every half hour. Not indicated how many times. Two or all day honey to eat? Some begin to feel sick after the third dose. It will not help get rid of alcohol intoxication, it will not save the body with a hangover.
10. Potassium permanganate. Dilute a pinch in two liters of pure water to obtain a slightly pink solution. Drink as much as you like and a little more. The method will help if vomiting is caused afterwards. Ugly, but effective. It’s called gastric lavage. They do it until a distinct alcoholic smell disappears or a person comes to the right state of sobering up.
11. Diuretic. Any natural. Watermelon, green tea, cold coffee, mineral water. We'll have to run to the bathroom, but the body will quickly get rid of the decay products of alcohol.
12. Herbal teas. The composition is offered by anyone, but the amount is terrifying. 20 glasses a day! Yes, any herbal tea, if you drink it in a bucket, can become poison. After all, with each intake, beneficial substances accumulate in the body, but are not immediately excreted.And, by the way, no herbal decoction will help get rid of intoxication.

Outside

1. Cold shower. A good method if the water is cool rather than icy. Otherwise, vasospasm may occur, which will lead to cardiac arrest. But it is cool water that greatly enhances the flow of blood in the body. Which, in turn, will help get rid of intoxication. Dip your feet in cold water, hold there for about 15 minutes. The method is very effective. Feet freeze - I want a little toilet. The effect is the same as taking a diuretic.
2. Fresh air. Provide a constant flow, breathe deeply. Oddly enough, but it helps. Fusel oils and alcohol fumes are eliminated from the body through the lungs.
3. Exercise stress. If a person is able, then he should squat, run. In general, do any action that causes sweating. The products of poisoning come out through sweat, and blood runs faster through the body. With severe intoxication, any attempt to move causes sweating. This is good, it means a person is sober.
4. The bathhouse. Like the method described above, the action is based on sweating. Just be careful with the temperature. It should be tolerant, not superextreme. Otherwise, instead of sobering, you can get a stroke.
5. The ears. Place your hands over your ears and rub them in quickly. Blood flow to the brain is ensured. Helps for a short time. It does not relieve intoxication.

Total. Right actions

To get rid of alcohol intoxication, you must first:

1. Remove the maximum amount of alcohol from the stomach. To do this, drink as much salted water or a weak solution of potassium permanganate as possible. Then induce vomiting. In most cases, it starts spontaneously, but sometimes you need to click on the root of the tongue to trigger the reflex.
2. Remove ethanol and fusel oils from the lungs. To do this, ensure the flow of fresh air. You can go to the balcony or the street.
3. Help the body cleanse itself of the breakdown products of alcohol. This is the use of diuretic drinks (not drugs!) Or a cold foot bath. Increased sweat - if possible physical activity or a light bath.
4. Restore the water-salt balance. To do this, you need to drink mineral water, pickle from pickled vegetables. It would be nice to make a person drink a strong salty broth. It’s nice to have a pop. By the way, the notorious Alka-Seltzer has a very similar composition.
5. Help the brain. This is the use of warm sweet tea or sweet natural juices.
6. Help cleanse the body as a whole. This requires the use of any adsorbent. The most common is the most common activated carbon. For 1 pill for every 10 kg of its weight and soon you can forget about excessive libation.
7. Give the body a rest. In common people - to sleep. If possible, do it without fail.

Only in no case at any stage you can not drink just clean water. It dilutes the remains of alcohol in the body and ensures its circulation in the blood, instead of excretion. Replace water with any drink: juice, tea, brine, mineral water.

How to get rid of alcohol intoxication? Of course, it’s better not to get drunk at all. Or at least drink quality alcohol. But, if that happened, then before using all the methods in a row, you should think about their advisability. Do not be zealous with dosages, think about the consequences. Take care of yourself.
