In today’s societies, alcohol is used and abused commonly and thus it has caused a lot of problems that by understanding its possible causes, prevalence and consumption pattern, an appropriate approach to deal with its adverse effects will be achieved. This study is a descriptive study based on the medical records of all cases of alcohol intoxication patients referring to Razi Hospital during 2005 to 2008. The required data were obtained from medical records. After studying the cases, a questionnaire was set based on desired variables and the questionnaire was completed by available information in cases. Then, the data were analyzed by using SPSS software. The level of significance in above tests was considered equal and less than 0.05. The number of alcohol intoxication referring patients to Razi hospital during 2005 to 2008 was 121 cases. In this study, 2 patients were passed away, but there was no significant association between mortality and alcohol consumption type (p = 0.349). Statistical analysis showed that the possibility of creating serious complications following the use of methanol is higher (p = 0.00001). It was found that there is a significant association between the alcohol consumption type and acidosis in patients (p <.1). A significant association was found between the need for hemodialysis and the use of antidotes (p <0.00001) that was related to the use of antidote in cases of needing hemodialysis when using homemade alcohol and methanol (p = 0.011). In addition, there was a significant association between the alcohol consumption type and the need for ICU in patients (p = 0.007). The results represented that alcohol consumption background in males is higher than females (p = 0.026). In this study, 10.6% of patients had acidosis.
