Can alcohol intoxication (not withdrawal) cause convulsions and or seizures and lower the seizure threshold?

Alcohol Poisoning: Yes. Of course. People can even die with too much alcohol in a setting. This is called alcohol poisoning. Sound like the person with these symptoms needs to get sober and to stay sober.

Get this addressed: Agree with dr killian, as risk definitely present. Bigger issue by far is not provocation of convulsions, but rather why are seizures present, and what will be eventual outcome of alcohol abuse. You see, alcoholics do suffer head injuries, with post-traumatic szs. If you or a close relationship is the subject, contact alcoholics anonymous asap.
