You should be fine: Although it isn't recommended to take any medications with alcohol this isn't a problem. There should be absolutely no problems or interactions. Ibuprofen, better known as Advil or Motrin is an NSAID and primarily goes thru kidney. Alcohol is metabolized thru the liver. If following the directions on the label they are safe together. To much Tylenol (acetaminophen) with alcohol may cause liver problems.Good luck

Not bad: but the combo of alcohol and Ibuprofen can be rough on your stomach if taken close together. If so,take some antacid.
