Description :
Ethanol is a powerful psychoactive drug and one of the oldest recreational drugs. It is best known as the type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages and thermometers. In common usage, it is often referred to simply as alcohol or spirits. Ethanol is a central nervous system depressant and has significant psychoactive effects in sublethal doses. A blood ethanol level of 0.5% or more is commonly fatal. Ethanol levels of even less than 0.1% can cause intoxication, with unconsciousness often occurring at 0.3 - 0.4%. The amount of ethanol in the body is typically quantified by blood alcohol content.
