Extreme Drinking: a dangerous way to party

The amount of alcohol it takes for you to pass out is dangerously close to the amount it takes to kill you.

Only you can decide whether you drink. And only you can decide how much is too much. Recent research shows that mixed in with the accurate information there are some misconceptions about alcohol out there.

We have created some new materials that give you the facts about alcohol, why it affects you differently at different times, and practical tips on what you should and shouldn’t do if you or a friend has had too much.
