Following will help sober up or lower the BAL of an intoxicated person?

There is no quick way to sober up or lower the blood alcohol level (BAL) of an intoxicated person. Time is the only effective method, as the body metabolizes alcohol at a consistent rate. While hydration and food may help alleviate some symptoms of intoxication, they do not speed up the elimination of alcohol from the system. It's always best to ensure a safe environment and avoid driving or operating machinery until fully sober.

Is time will remove alcohol from your system?

Urine- much of the alcohol you consume will be expelled when you go to the bathroom. To speed up the process, drink water. Water dilutes the alcohol concentration within you, but speeds up kidney function, causing you to urinate more, and thus remove more alcohol.

Vomit- if you consumed too much alcohol, the fastest way to rid it from yourself is to vomit. This expels the alcohol before it can even be taken into your system, essentially "undoing" the drinking. This is not healthy, as stomach acids corrode the esophagus and teeth, not to mention that it is not fun. But it is the best way to remove alcohol soon after you drank it.

Increased metabolism- the faster your body metabolizes, the quicker alcohol can be processed and removed. Do this by running, eating, and being active. Be careful though, as these activities may be hard and painful with all the poison running through your system.

Time- this is the most 'truthful' answer. The above may help process alcohol in your system, but you must let your body take care of you. Take some time to relax. Sleep, watch tv or listen to music to pass the time. Be careful with sleep though, as you could continue to get sicker and not be able to get help. If you recently consumed alcohol, make sure to have a good friend watch over you who can help you as you need.

Sobriety is a loaded word. When does your thinking fully clear from the damage of heavy drinking? Medically it takes a year and a half to two years for the brain of heavy drinker to repair itself. Most sober alcoholics notice their emotions are more stable and thinking is clearer around this time. The changes happen gradually. But after three months of not drinking they are noticeably better than they were after a week of sobriety. At a year of sobriety most have lost the craving for alcohol and the rates of drinking again drop enormously, though relapses happen. At 2 years of sobriety it is rare for an alcoholic to return to drinking.
