What antibiotics is it? Some you won't have too much of an effect, especially after one glass, most antibiotics you can get away with one or two drinks, but other antibiotics will cause a really adverse reaction to ANY alcohol. Best to read the box, the instructions or check online.



you might...but i doubt it. One glass wont do harm, plus you ate as well but it might make the antibiotics not as effective...so stay away from alcohol untill you are off the meds if you actaully want them to work.



Actually with some antibiotics alcohol cancels out the antibiotic and makes the antibiotic not work.
