A clinically significant transient condition that develops during or shortly after the administration of alcohol that is characterized by disturbances in level of consciousness, cognition, perception, affect, behaviour or coordination. Common features of alcohol intoxication include mood lability, impaired judgement, impaired coordination, unsteady gait. Alcohol intoxication can also be associated with inappropriate behaviour and impaired social interaction. These features are caused by the known pharmacological effects of alcohol; their intensity is closely related to the amount of alcohol consumed and they abate as alcohol is cleared from the body.
