Irregular breathing is a symptom that indicates alcohol poisoning. Alcohol poisoning is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when someone consumes a toxic amount of alcohol, usually over a short period of time. Irregular breathing, such as slow breathing (less than eight breaths per minute) or irregular gaps in breathing (a gap of more than 10 seconds between breaths), is a sign of severe intoxication and requires immediate medical attention.
