In humans (n = 10) infused with 1.0â1.3 mmol sodium dl-lactate/(kg Â· h), â¼90% of d-lactate was metabolized, and 10% excreted in the urine (12). At higher infusion rates of 3.0â4.6 mmol/(kg Â· h), metabolism decreased to â¼75% of overall clearance (12).
Deaths from alcohol poisoning as a contributing cause peaked for those between ages 35 and 44 (average age at death was 39.9 years). When the age-specific rate was calculated using deaths with any mention of alcohol poisoning, the rate was highest at ages 35 to 44 (1.33 deaths per 100,000 population).
In more severe cases of alcohol poisoning the following can occur: choking on oneâs own vomit, breathing stops completely or a heart attack. Hypothermia also becomes dangerous as thereâs risk of brain damage. Also dangerous are when there are fits or seizures which happen when blood glucose levels drop to low levels. Extreme cases of alcohol poisoning are coma, sometimes leading to death.
