Medicine and Alcohol...?!
Question: Medicine and Alcohol...?
Hello. So as we all know the new year is coming and a few days ago I caught a disease. Yesterday I went to the doctor and the doctor told me to buy medicine called "Amoksiklav", it's an antibiotic, and I'm going to this party with my friends on the new year, and I don't know if I could drink any alcohol. Do you guys know if I can drink alcohol? What would happen if I drank vodka while I'm taking this medicine? :/

First Don't go to the party. Do you want to give all your friends your bugs? They won't be your friends long if that's how you treat them. If you must drink, have your booze-up first, then after 24 hours start the antibiotic course and complete it without alchohol. If you can't go five days without booze you need more than antibiotics to put you right.
DO NOT take medicine with alcohol! This could lead to all sorts of health problems like internal bleeding. For your safety, don't ever mix alcohol with medicine!
