Alcohol intolerance is a real and often underdiagnosed condition. It’s not the same as an alcohol allergy, but it can be just as serious. If you have alcohol intolerance, drinking even a small amount of alcohol can cause uncomfortable symptoms like flushing, headache, and nausea.

Unfortunately, many people with alcohol intolerance don’t know they have it until they have a reaction. And, since reactions can vary from person to person, it can be hard to diagnose.

Alcohol intolerance can be particularly problematic if you have developed a dependence on, or have be diagnosed with an addiction to alcohol, as repeated exposure to alcohol can make the symptoms more dangerous.
