When one experiences the room spinning, sick to the stomach and vomiting. They also usually slip into a coma, and can sometimes die. it is called an OVERDOSE. For some reason, we hate to acknowledge that alcohol is just another addictive drug. If we were talking about heroin we wouldn't hesitate to call it an overdose, but since it's alcohol, we hate to see that it's a drug and just call it an overdose, so we use the idiotic terminology, "alcohol poisoning."

What kind of alcohol are you referring to? Is it the drinking kind, or skin therapy kind? For the drinking kind, your internal organs will become affected which will show up "in Nature". All therapeutic alcohols have a warning label on them. Without knowing the extent of this class study it is difficult to give you an easy answer.

vomiting, loss of consciousness, slow breaths, clammy skin, and if someone is close to you, there will be a strong odor of alcohol (i know that sounds like a "duh" symptom, but trust me...it is terrible!). Good Luck in health class.
