Know the Signs of ALCOHOL POISONING
Are You Ready to Help a Friend?


Signs of Alcohol Poisoning:

  • Unconscious or passed out and cannot be awakened
  • Vomiting
  • Seizures
  • Irregular, slow breathing (8 breaths or less per minute)
  • Cold, clammy, pale or bluish skin


If you or your friends are experiencing any of these symptoms while intoxicated, seek immediate help.
 

What To Do:

  • Call 911
  • Stay with your friend until help arrives
  • Turn your friend on his or her side
  • Monitor breathing closely

Hesitating to act can mean the difference between LIFE AND DEATH.
 

What NOT To Do:

  • Leave your friend alone
  • Let your friend “sleep it off”
  • Allow your friend to drive
  • Give your friend food, liquid, medication or drugs
  • Encourage your friend walk, run or exercise
  • Put your friend in a cold shower

You are ALWAYS doing the right thing by getting help.
