A Stanford University study found that Long COVID could have a direct impact on alcohol sensitivity. Drs. Marc Siegel of NYU Langone and Bala Munipalli of Mayo Clinic discussed the research.
Drinking too much is often a recipe for a morning-after disaster. But for long COVID patients, hangover symptoms might be much worse, according to research. A small study by Stanford University, which was published in the journal Cureus, examined alcohol sensitivity in four people with post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 , or long COVID.
Two patients reported worse headaches after drinking the same amount of alcohol they would have consumed prior to having COVID. One patient, a 40-year-old woman with a history of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type III, asthma, anemia, hypotension and migraines, claimed that she could tolerate seven mixed drinks containing hard liquor in one night before long COVID struck.
Bala Munipalli, M.D., an internist at Mayo Clinic in Florida, also weighed in on this study, noting to Fox News Digital that post-viral persistence of symptoms is 'not unique to COVID-19.' Munipalli was also not involved in the study. 'We have seen this occurring since the 1918 Spanish flu, and saw it with SARS-CoV-1 in 2003 and with Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome in 2012,' she said.
