There Are Many: Side-effects from alcohol overuse and abuse, whether it be vodka or any other alcoholic beverage, range from short-term issues with cognitive and sensory impairment (which can result in death via motor vehicle accidents or other reckless behavior), emotional lability and hangover. Longer-term side effects include liver disease, dementia and death from either of these, and from alcohol withdrawal.
