Accepted Answer

Yes: As safe as it will ever be to drink alcohol.

Question 2

how long do i have to wait to take methocarbamol after drinking two glasses of wine?

Accepted Answer

: Should not take alcohol while on this med

Question 3

i had two glasses of wine at night and, not thinking, took a 500mg tablet of paracetamol for a headache. i rarely take paracetamol. i took provogil 200mg that morning too, and drank alcohol the night before also. should i worry about an interaction?

Accepted Answer

Drug interactions: Many drugs and broken down by the liver, just like alcohol is.  The doses of the medications you mentioned should cause no major concern.  One caution would be not to do this regimen on an ongoing basis.  If there is still a concern, I recommend checking with your  primary care provider.

Question 4

hi, i had two glasses of wine with dinner. when is it safe to take gabapentin 600mg which i take at bedtime for restless leg syndrome.

Accepted Answer

Drugs interact: Per Drugs.Com drug interaction checker, use of Gabapentin and alcohol togehter carries the risk of "dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. Some people may also experience impairment in thinking and judgment.". If you take Gabapentin, recommend that you consider stopping alcohol use in the future. If you are going right to bed after taking, would take the Gabapentin tonight.

Question 5

took two glasses of wine work up with a lot of pain on the left side of my waist?

Accepted Answer

What is there.: cannot say in your particular case, but generally, one can proceed from what structures are there to be painful. Muscles, tendons, skin can be tender (pain would be there on touch and outside). Can also be stomach irritation (wine often does that). In theory kidney (but that is in the back). In theory intestine but doubtful and would be crampy.

Question 6

i had two glasses of wine around 7pm today i am now  feeling very anxious so i took my clonazepam 1mg at 1120 pm. will i be okay?

Accepted Answer

Be careful: Alcohol and benzodiazepines like valium, Xanax, (alprazolam) klonopin and Ativan are central nervous system depressants, and could be dangerous if taken together. I think you will be okay but please try to not do that again.

Question 7

does drinking two glasses of wine a day cause stomach ulcers?

Accepted Answer

Not really: Moderate wine, alcohol consumption does not help an ulcer condition but it does not cause it either... Alcohol in heavy chronic use may cause multiple digestive problems including gastritis, reflux and liver problems but other factors will need to co-exist to create an ulcer. For example the helicobacter pylori bacterium in the stomach lining, or use of non-steroidal ani-inflammatories or aspirin.

Question 8

can you drink alcohol while taking 40mg of prednisone a day? just one or two glasses of wine.

Accepted Answer

Better if you don't: Mixing alcohol with any med can cause unpredictable side effects due to the fact that alcohol has various metabolites that can interact with other drugs which also have various metabolites.  In other words, it adds a strong component of unpredictability to your treatment.  Not worth it.

Question 9

what is the risk for occasional alcohol use and taking wellbutrin 150mg/qd? i rarely drink, perhaps twice a month, but when i do i will probably have two glasses of wine per sitting, sharing half a bottle? no hx of seizures or significant s/e?

Accepted Answer

Real vs actual: Actually you should never use alcohol with antidepressants but an occasional drink, especially if this is an established habit, should be ok.

Question 10

an insurance exam came back 85 ggt, 31 ast, and 34 alt . i had two glasses of wine about 7.5 hours before the test. is elevated ggt due to this?

Accepted Answer

Could be. : Should retest to be sure. Abstain from alcohol for at least 24 hours before retest.
