Many prescription drugs carry the label "Do not drink alcohol while taking this medication;" the reason that this warning should be heeded is because the use of alcohol can increase the effects of drugs that make people drowsy, can alter the metabolism (break-down) of drugs, or reduce the effectiveness of drugs.
When dealing with someone who has alcoholism issues, they will consume "adult beverages" at different times throughout the day. This will result in immediate alcohol abuse effects when an excess amount of consumption takes place. You can see the physical issues that surface in as little as 10 minutes after this individual starts drinking. The more he or she drinks, the worse the condition will become.
The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) says the brain continues to develop into the early 20s, and exposing the brain to alcohol in that period may impair brain development.
In 1984, the Federal Government enacted the National Minimum Drinking Age Act, which calls for reduced Federal transportation funds-the money States use to build and repair their highways-to those States that did not raise the minimum legal drinking age to 21. Today, drinking by anyone under age 21 is against the law in every State and in the District of Columbia.
