A member asked:

Effects of mixing alcohol and caffeine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Alcohol poisoning: Caffeine causes one to stay more awake while drinking which raises the risk of drinking excessively. Usually intoxication makes one sleepy, but caffeination in alcohol enables one to keep drinking to potential alcohol poisoning.
