Common Questions and Answers about Alcohol allergy liquor

alcohol

Avatar n tn I used to be able to drink beer, wine, or liquor and never had any problems (even if I drank a lot). Then, in my mid-20's I developed either alcohol intolerance or an alcohol allergy. I didn't have restricted breathing but I did have a runny nose and a very noticeable increased heart rate. I'd get this after just one drink, and it didn't matter if it was beer, wine, or liquor.
Avatar n tn You can take antihistaminics prior to consumption of alcohol also but pls get yourself prescribed for them from an allergist.Also it is true that allergy to alcohol can cause anaphylactic reaction which may be life threatening. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn That is VERY possible Please be careful if you think you have an allergy to alcohol. A dear friend of mine started off with slight symptoms when he drank...they progressed over time...he began to get very violent when drinking ( after only one drink!)...one night he simply stopped breathing after only having one swallow of beer. As with ANY allergy, you never know when the severity may change.
Avatar f tn For years I drank on the weekends, going out after work,( I worked as a paramedic for 11 years and thats usually how we ended our long weeks at the bar our way of de-stressing ) and never had a problem other than the occasional hang-over.. then in 2004 i stopped drinking all together and in 2011 started again occasionally. I am now noticing that every time i drink i get very stuffed up and sometimes "wheezy" . and it doesn't seem to matter if I drink dark liquor or light..
Avatar m tn Our reaction to alcohol is what makes us alcoholics, not how much we drink. The best way to describe it is an allergy to alcohol. When we drink all bets are off. We end up with consequences. Her relationship with you was based on the Tony before the bottle of Vodka. When you become that Tony again, things will change for the better. But the most important thinking in sobriety is to be sober for YOU and you alone. Learn to love yourself. All else will follow.

Avatar f tn It first happened to me when I was about 25, and would only occur if I drank a certain type of liquor. Now it happens no matter what I drink. I don't get any red bumps, but I just feel like my skin in the neck and chest area have this tingling, burning and itching that just makes me want to rip my skin off because it's so annoying.
Avatar f tn So it is my opinion that your are experiencing an allergy like response. It may happen with all alcohol or you may find that there is only one type or one brand that you can consume. I am sorry that this happens to you. If it is the alcohol it should also happen when you take a cough medication or mouthwash that also contains alcohol. If it is important to you than I would suggest that you consult an allergist. Best of luck to you.
Avatar f tn Yep, sounds like you've acquired an allergy to liquor. Not a bad problem to have. I haven't had a drink since '99 and don't miss it a bit.
Avatar n tn t drink, a true allergy to alcohol. I have pancreatitis and was a result of drinking too much. I chose not to drink anything, the key is moderation. If you have elevated enzymes, take a look at life without alcohol.
Avatar n tn I think 2 regular sized bottles of beer in one weekend will not effect your health.... assuming you're not taking prescription drugs with an alcohol warning and you eat a normal/healthy diet.
Avatar n tn , diet cola), does it make a difference what liquor I drink (vodka, scotch, rum, scotch, etc.)? A bartender I know says that drinking vodka is better than scotch or rum because of their sugar content. But I know that none of those liquors have any carbohydrates, so I'm confused. Can anyone help?
Avatar m tn The possible allergens in alcohol can be contaminants with alcohol, hapten carrier responses, alcohol or metabolite conjugates. One more important thing is agents like alcohol are believed to increase the rate of allergen absorption. Take care and regards.
Avatar f tn how can i help my dad getting over his alcohol dont get mw wrong hes been off it for four week now but he keep on taking painkiller everyday and hes not eatting that much as well is there any vitamins or anything that could help him.
Avatar m tn Alcohol can be a headache trigger for many people. It is for me. I don't find that all types of alcohol triggers my headaches. Wine always triggers my headaches, and does for most people... so wine would probably not be better. Beer is another big headache trigger. BUT! Everyone is different. If wine doesn't trigger your headaches, then... you can drink wine without too much worry as long as you don't drink enough to get hung over the next day, right?
Avatar f tn I'm 20 years old and while I don't drink too frequently (4ish times a month), I have a pretty high alcohol tolerance for my small stature; I've only been hungover once (after a Four Loko...bad decision). However, I've noticed that I get a bizarre reaction when I drink Yuengling Lager Light - after having only one, I'll have to pee like crazy for about two hours, outputting about as much urine as if I'd had five drinks.
Avatar f tn Okay so my baby shower is next weekend and I wanted to know should I have alcohol there? I mean I never been much of a drinker and I can't drink anyway now that I'm pregnant but should I still get liquor for the people that do? Let me know what you all think!
Avatar f tn So I ate a bite size of this pie that had liquor in it. I didn't know until I was about to take the next bite. I stopped after the first bite. Can this affect my baby?
684658 tn?1239384954 m wondering if after all these years, will just drinking beer (or beer and hard liquor, like whiskey or vodka) cause someone to behave in bizarre manners, hallucinate, or become extremely violent? He says he quit doing drugs about 1982-1983, but with the way he acts/behaves, I don't believe him.
