Question

Taking two depressants such as a sleeping pill along with alcohol can result in
drug antagonism
drug synergism
cancelling extreme drowsiness

Answer 1

Taking two depressants, such as a sleeping pill along with alcohol, typically results in **drug synergism**. This means that the combined effects of the two substances intensify each other, leading to more pronounced sedation and drowsiness than either substance would produce alone. Therefore, using them together can significantly increase the risk of respiratory depression, overdose, and other dangerous side effects.
