Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant and it is the central nervous system which is the bodily system that is most severely affected by alcohol (see chart below). The degree to which the central nervous system function is impaired is directly proportional to the concentration of alcohol in the blood2.
Alcohol is often incorrectly classified as a stimulant or upper. Alcohol is in fact a tranquilliser which depresses the central nervous system. The short term physical effects depend on the blood-alcohol level. It ranges from mild mood changes to complete loss of coordination, vision, balance and speech. These effects usually wear off in a matter of hours after a person stops drinking. Larger amounts of blood alcohol can impair brain functioning and eventually cause unconsciousness. An extreme overdose, when the blood-alcohol level is higher than 0,50, can be fatal.
