(Press Release)
Dec., 2010 -- Binge drinking is a common pattern of excessive
alcohol use in the United States. The National Institute on
Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines binge drinking as a pattern
of drinking that brings a person’s blood alcohol concentration
(BAC) to 0.08 grams percent or above. This typically happens
when men consume 5 or more drinks, and when women consume 4
or more drinks, in about 2 hours.
Most people who binge drink are not alcohol dependent.
According to national surveys Approximately 92% of U.S. adults
who drink excessively report binge drinking in the past 30
days.
Although college students commonly binge drink, 70% of binge
drinking episodes involve adults age 26 years and older. The
prevalence of binge drinking among men is higher than the
prevalence among women. Binge drinkers are 14 times more likely
to report alcohol-impaired driving than non-binge drinkers.
About 90% of the alcohol consumed by youth under the age
of 21 in the United States is in the form of binge drinks.
About 75% of the alcohol consumed by adults in the United
States is in the form of binge drinks. The proportion of current
drinkers that binge is highest in the 18- to 20-year-old group
(51%).
