Again, kind of long but please ansewr. Giving up Alcohol?? Thanks.?I asked a question earlier on about my GP refering me to a specialist doctor who deals with substance abuse. Also a kind of therapy apparently.This is after i’ve been seeing my GP for about 2-3 months about self harm and some other issues (including feeling down all the time and excessive alcohol intake).Someone said this doctor will want me to stop drinking alcohol completly. I do understand that but i usually binge drink’ drinking about an average of 14-17 units a time. I only do this twice a week.I don’t know if i’ll beable to do that infact i know i wont. I’m 18 and in a city which has a binge drinking culture. It’s 100% normal for 18-25 year olds to go out and get completly smashed on a regular basis (im 18). I think it would be hard for anyone to not drink but seeing as apparently i use it as a coping mechanism’, mask’ feelings with alcohol and drink waay more than the average person here then i just don’t know if it’s possible.I REALLY want to stop because my doctor says there’s not all that much they can do for the self harm and other feelings due to 1-they can’t give me anti depressants 2-alcohol is masking everything so getting to the root of the problem would be almost impossible.Also on numerous occasions i’ve got my self in dangerous situations. So basically i DO really want to stop drinking but can’t imagine a life without being drunk atall. I admit i do ony drink to get drunk (very drunk). I prefer being drunk than sober if it was socially acceptable i’d be drunk 24/7.Despite this i’m willing to put in effort but i just don’t know if its actually possible. I can’t even imagine my life without alcohol. I think i rely on alcohol more than i do most things such as friends, family etc.I think things are just going to get a whole load worse and i dont know if can affort for that to happen. I’m scared i really dont think stopping is possible and i do dread a life without being drunk..ever.Please don’t suggest to me to go to AA.IS this even possible?How will i ever manage it?What can i do?!Thanks

I don’t have this issue, but 2 asian friends came over last night both woth a propensity for the flush. Each popped a zantac on my suggestion, both were able to consume much more alcohol than they do regularly. Even I popped one 150. Just read the study regarding it increasing BAC…suggest that the amount asians typically drink shouldn’t preclude use of zantac. Benefits outweigh the negatives IMO.

After reading all your posts I thought I’d share my experiences with Zantac 150.

I’ve been taking different heartburn meds for a couple years now to prevent the Asian flush. I usually take one tablet before drinking (typically Pepcid or Zantac 75mg). Last six months or so I’ve taken taking Zantac 150 mint flavor (I bought these figuring the higher dosage would be more effective than the 75mg so why not?). I notice when i take these that my drinks taste minty throughout the entire night (not in a good way – like toothpaste in your drink) but more importantly, the 150 dose make it so that my buzz takes much longer to kick in. This has resulted in some undesired consequences over my last several outings. I basically end up drinking a lot more than I normally would and before I know it I’m completely wasted. It’s as if there is no gradual transition from being slightly buzzed to drunk. I’ve also blacked out several times in the past few months (not remembering what happened towards the end of the night or how I got home) something that rarely ever happens to me. Worse part about some of these nights is that I’ve behaved regrettably by stumbling, dropping drinks and causing general concern amongst my friends the next day – something I haven’t done since my teen years. I’ve been drinking regularly for the past twenty years and I’ve always been a controlled drinker keeping my behavior in relative check. Since these episodes, I’ve stopped taking the Zantac 150 and have gone down to the 75 mg which seems to work just as good without drunk teleporting and blackouts. I don’t mind being a little pink as long as i’m not walking around looking like a tomato. Would be curious to hear if anyone else has experienced anything like this taking the 150mg or heart burn meds in general.

Hey guys, been using zantac for a few years before drinking but for the past month or so it messed up every time, I always felt very nauseous after drinking and more recently fainted – after like two drinks! will not be using again

I hope that you all know that taking Zantac before drinking is NOT a cure for the Asian Flush. While it may inhibit or lessen the embarrassing red face/body it does not inhibit the chemical reaction that is taking place inside your body. The reason for the flushing is an accumulation of acetaldehyde, a carcinogen, and a faulty acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) enzyme responsible for breaking down acetaldehyde. It has been said that a large number of the population that have Asian Flush convert alcohol to acetaldehyde up to 4 times as fast a normal person thus increasing the amount of accumulated acetaldehyde. Also many Asians are at a significantly higher risk for Esophageal cancer so drinking heavily should be avoided at all costs.
