Alcohol is an opiate agonist and it increases the half-lives of the opiate dramaticly....resulting in overdose or death

Yeah, it's a bad idea to mix those two....or if you do, do a little of one and a lot of the other ;D

Alcohol is an opiate agonist and it increases the half-lives of the opiate dramaticly....resulting in overdose or death Actually alcohol is not an opiate agonist. Opiate agonists are drug compounds that bind with opiate receptors to form a complex which elicits a full pharmacological response peculiar to the nature of the receptor involved. In short that means opiate agonists are drugs that bind with the opiate receptors, and cause the opiate effects. Alcohol does not bind with the opiate receptors, therefore it cannot be a agonist. However both opiates and alcohol are CNS depressants. This is where the synergistic effects arise, and this is where the danger begins. Once the CNS is sufficently depressed breathing stops, and death occurs. |

Hi, I'm a noob but not about this stuff.
Alcohol goes through your liver. Now add to the liver some strong painkillers. You probably won't feel like eating, you prolly won't be feeling much at all.
You may not notice when your liver decides it's done enough for the day and stops working. You will notice later!
Besides the additive effects mentioned above, you have the poisonous effects of overwhelming your only liver.
