What happens to individuals who consume alcohol and cannabis simultaneously?

They may not feel intoxicated
They may feel less intoxicated
They may experience higher intoxication
They experience a balanced effect

The correct answer is: They may experience higher intoxication

When individuals consume alcohol and cannabis simultaneously, they may experience higher levels of intoxication than if they had consumed either substance alone. This phenomenon occurs because both substances interact with the central nervous system, potentially leading to enhanced effects. Cannabis can amplify the effects of alcohol, resulting in increased impairment, altered judgment, and a greater risk of accidents or adverse reactions. This heightened intoxication contributes to a range of effects that can be more intense and unpredictable compared to the consumption of either substance on its own. Consequently, it's important for individuals to be aware of these risks, as combining alcohol and cannabis can significantly impact their cognitive and motor functions.
