What Causes Foaming At The Mouth Upon Intake Of Excessive Alcohol?
My boyfriend a is 49 and likes to drink a few beers and was drinking tonight and consumed maybe 12 beers...I ve seen him drink this before no problem but tonight he started foaming at the mouth and lost control of bodily function.....What could this be? Never see him do this before ever....
The foaming from the mouth is a partial transient alteration of consciousness level in terms of delirium due to over-consumption of alcohol. The same reverts back to normal with time slowly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
