Study researchers from U.S. and Canada (in cooperation with Canada drugs pharmacies online ) studied, monitored and analyzed 800 undergraduates and more than 150 postgraduates from 5 various North American Universities for 2 years.

Results show that greater than half of the students experienced at least 1 memory blackout for the last 12 months prior the study started; and, 7 percent of the students had at least 6 blackouts in the same period.  That is, it is the result of dangerous drinking in campuses which turned out to be persistent.
