SMOKING: WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS?

Immediate effects

  • Smoking one cigarette immediately raises a person's blood pressure and heart rate and decreases the blood flow to body extremities such as the fingers and toes.
  • Brain and the nervous system activity is stimulated for a short time and then reduced.
  • A smoker may also experience dizziness, nausea, watery eyes and acid in the stomach.
  • Appetite, taste and smell are weakened.

Health effects of alcohol

Short-term effects

Alcohol is a powerful drug and it affects the body and brain straight away. About five minutes after starting drinking, alcohol has reached every part of the body.

Alcohol dries out (dehydrates) the body and lowers blood sugar levels.

Alcohol dulls the brain. Although this may feel stimulating at first, it feels worse later on because alcohol is a 'downer' (or depressant) drug.

Alcohol affects judgement. Research shows that the more convinced drinkers are that they can perform tasks well when drunk, the worse they really do.

In large doses alcohol causes loss of coordination and slowing of movement, and can even lead to coma and death.

Mixing alcohol with other drugs is extremely dangerous. This includes prescription and 'over-the-counter' (OTC) drugs such as sleeping pills, cough medicines or antihistamines, as well as illicit drugs such as cannabis, ecstasy, cocaine or heroin.
