Question Can you drink alcohol while taking Amoxicillin antibiotics? Best Answer Yes you can, it's Metronidazole that you have to avoid alcohol with Others NO! NO! NO! Not if you want the medicine to work. no i did and i couldnt stop pucking after two vodkas and coked so be awre but it might not affect u like that but it also stops the antibiotic working hope u get better soon lolx A widespread myth holds that you shouldn't drink alcohol while taking antibiotics, but in fact, drinking doesn't lessen the effects of the drugs. However, alcohol can lower your general energy and delay your recovery so it is best to minimize drinking until you've finished the prescribed course of antibiotic treatment. (Beyond that, chronic liver damage from excessive alcohol consumption can affect the metabolism and toxicity of antibiotics.) http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/qaa326593... Drugs and Alcohol don't mix you should never drink alcohol on any antibiotic.. it can cause the medicine to not work as effectively and you may feel excessively drunk for less alcohol. for all the non believers that it may make it less effective, here you go.. i never said it reacted with the drug.. and here is a link that talks about how it can cause a loss of effectiveness. http://www.menshealth.co.uk/answers/answ... |
