hi alcoholics tend to have night sweats because the body is actually starting to go through withdrawal while they are sleeping. the body is trying to rid itself of all of the toxins that excess alcohol can put in the body. if you are quitting drinking then make sure you are using breathable sheets on the bed such as cotton and keep a cool drink of water by the bed. it is important to stay hydrated because a lot of water is lost through the sweat. so your best bet would be give up the drink and become an ex-alcoholic its your life you have to think of and not the next drink. good luck
