Binge drinking is an unhealthy way of drinking alcoholic beverages. When people binge drink, they usually drink a lot of alcohol in a short time, or drink with the goal of getting drunk.

Binge drinking is very common in the United States. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that in the U.S.:[1]

  • More than half of the alcohol drunk by adults is drunk during binge drinking; and
  • About 90% of the alcohol drunk by youth under age 21 is drunk during binge drinking.
