Alcohol,
a central nervous system depressant, is the most widely abused
drug in the Unites States. While moderate use of alcohol is acceptable
to most people, its misuse can have consequences ranging from
mild embarrassment to death.
The use
of alcohol, especially by youth, has changed drastically over
the years. Industry marketing has provided the consumer the opportunity
to drink larger and larger quantities of alcohol by increasing
serving size and package size. Accordingly, there has been a
rise in alcohol-related problems such as binge drinking, sexual
assaults, violence, destruction of property and other crimes.
