Fortunately, knowing the causes of hangovers, as well as different ways to cure a hangover, can help. […] Hangovers begin after blood alcohol levels start to fall. In fact, according to some experts, the worst symptoms occur when levels reach zero. […] The key ingredient seems to be „drinking to intoxication”; how much you drank to get there is less important. […] Several studies suggest that light and moderate drinkers are more vulnerable to getting a hangover than heavy drinkers.

  A hangover is when you have unpleasant physical and mental symptoms after drinking too much alcohol the previous night. […] Most people who get hangovers can diagnose themselves based on their alcohol consumption and symptoms. If you feel sick after consuming alcohol, you most likely have a hangover. […] Many hangover remedies claim to treat a hangover. But theyre often not based in science, and some can be dangerous. For example, drinking more alcohol (hair of the dog) wont help a hangover. More alcohol just increases the toxicity of the alcohol already in your body. […] Hangovers can cause more than just unpleasant symptoms. With a hangover, youre not thinking clearly. Alcohol impairs your attention, decision-making processes and muscle coordination. You might engage in risky behavior you wouldnt ordinarily do. For example, driving during a hangover can be dangerous or deadly. People can also injure themselves at work. […] Hangovers tend to go away on their own, even if you dont do anything. As your body readjusts to the lack of alcohol, you start to feel better.

  The alcohol hangover refers to the combination of mental and physical symptoms experienced the day after a single episode of heavy drinking, starting when the blood alcohol concentration approaches zero (Van Schrojenstein Lantman et al., 2016). […] Research has identified as many as 47 different symptoms that can be experienced during the alcohol hangover state (Penning et al., 2012). […] A recent study investigated the presence and severity of the most common hangover symptoms among 1,837 social drinkers (Van Schrojenstein Lantman et al., 2017).

  Many people who drink have had a hangover at some point in their life, and most of the time they are not cause for concern. However, under some circumstances hangovers can be dangerous and even life threatening. Excessive alcohol consumption leads to dehydration. This dehydration is what causes the symptoms of a hangover. These symptoms usually occur the morning after an excessive drinking session and may include dizziness, severe headaches, trembling and vomiting. […] Hangovers can result in reduced concentration, blurred vision and reduced reaction times. If people have jobs which involve heavy machinery, driving or looking after others, then these symptoms may put their own and others lives in danger. A WHO (World Health Organisation) survey reported that 25% of workplace accidents and 60% of fatal accidents at work may be linked to hangovers.

  Hangovers have also been linked to the onset of seizures. Even those not diagnosed with epilepsy can experience a seizure as a result of a hangover. For those with epilepsy, a hangover can induce a seizure and regular hangovers may result in more frequent/severe seizures. […] Moreover, the frequency of the patients seizures decreased when their drinking was reduced. This should be of particular concern to those who have epilepsy, have relatives with epilepsy, or have had any form of seizure before, as their threshold for seizure-induction maybe lower.

  Hangovers are a frequent, though unpleasant, experience among people who drink to intoxication. Despite the prevalence of hangovers, however, this condition is not well understood scientifically. Multiple possible contributors to the hangover state have been investigated, and researchers have produced evidence that alcohol can directly promote hangover symptoms through its effects on urine production, the gastrointestinal tract, blood sugar concentrations, sleep patterns, and biological rhythms. […] In addition, researchers postulate that effects related to alcohols absence after a drinking bout (i.e., withdrawal), alcohol metabolism, and other factors (e.g., biologically active, nonalcohol compounds in beverages; the use of other drugs; certain personality traits; and a family history of alcoholism) also may contribute to the hangover condition. Few of the treatments commonly described for hangover have undergone scientific evaluation.

It is thought that by counteracting this inflammatory response, hangovers can be reduced or prevented. […] Recently, the International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision (ICD-11) listed the alcohol hangover as a separate entity.
