A low level of response to alcohol, or the need for a higher number of drinks for an effect, is a risk factor for alcohol use disorders. The response to alcohol is usually measured in young subjects, and changes in this phenomenon over time have rarely been evaluated. Reports that, overall, individuals are likely to become more reactive to alcohol with advancing age led to the current evaluation to determine whether the number of drinks needed for an effect decreased between the teens and age 40 in a group of men.
