Probably: As a general guideline, you should not drink any alcohol products while taking antibiotics. Call your treating physician to check this out.

Alcohol ; Antibiotic: Most likely no. By four hours the antibiotic would be fully absorbed. But, i agree with the other doctor who answered this question, getting retested or discussing the risks here with your physician seems wise. One should never drink alcohol when on antibiotics.
