Un excès de boisson alcoolisée peut parfois entrainer de désagréables conséquences qui ne seraient pas faciles à faire disparaître.
La veisalgie plus communément appelée gueule de bois est la sensation d’inconfort qui se manifeste à la suite d’une consommation excessive de boisson alcoolisée. Elle apparaît quelques heures après l’absorption lorsque la concentration d’alcool dans le sang diminue, et elle semble atteindre son paroxysme lorsque l’alcoolémie redevient nulle. Les symptômes de la gueule de bois peuvent être multiples, de la sensation assez générale de faiblesse, aux nausées, en passant par des maux de tête. Et il semble que l’intensité des symptômes ressentis puisse augmenter avec la quantité d’alcool consommée. Mais même si les mécanismes précis derrière la veisalgie sont complexes et n’ont pas encore été totalement élucidés, existe-t-il un traitement qui permette efficacement de soulager la gueule de bois ?
