What Happens if I Consume Weed and Alcohol at the Same Time?

It’s so common to go out to a party or club and find yourself drinking up a storm, and then someone offers you what seems like a cigarette but doesn’t smell like one. To this day, smoking weed while drinking has been a mystery for people. Is it okay? Is it dangerous? Will I get sick? Will I feel anything at all?

There are a lot of questions people have that deserve answers. We’re going to explore what happens when you do consume weed before and during drinking and the short and long-term risks associated with consuming weed and alcohol in the same span of time.

Short term Risks

The short terms risks of marijuana consumption while drinking include;

  • Dehydration
  • Judgment Alterations
  • Blackouts/Memory loss
  • Poor Mental Health
  • Impaired driving and general function

Long-term Risks

Using and abusing any drug can cause long-term side effects. Some of the long-term risks associated with smoking weed before or during alcohol consumption include damage to your;

  • Liver
  • Heart
  • Gastrointestinal system
  • Kidneys
  • Immune system

Beyond this wonderful list, other damages can result from combined consumption, which are far more detrimental in our view.

1. A Reduction in Cognitive Function

This problem is far more common in developing brains than it is in fully developed brains. Increased marijuana use combined with drinking leads to poor attention, memory, cognitive decline, and low IQ. It’s a classic tale of all the best things in moderation and perhaps separately.

2. A Dependency Concern

When we start combined consumption of these two substances regularly, we begin to have a need to do it more frequently and always together. There have even been studies conducted that prove this theory.

Another study found that combined consumption leads to an overall increase in alcohol consumption.

3. Potential for Overdose

You might be confused by this one, considering weed isn’t considered a lethal drug by any means. However, when combined with alcohol, the risk of overdose is apparent.

What Happens If You Consume Weed Before Drinking

There’s not enough evidence to definitely say what happens if you smoke before consuming weed. However, the minuscule studies conducted suggest it slows down the effects of alcohol. This leads to a false sense of security towards your intoxication level’s true nature, which can ultimately be very dangerous.

What Happens If You Consume Weed After Drinking

Smoking weed after drinking will intensify the effects of the weed. This results from alcohol absorbing THC faster than if you were sober. This leads to a stronger high, but the alternative is people can experience ‘greenies.’ This results in dizziness, vomiting, sweating, and nausea.
