Should people with galactosemia drink alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The alcohol wouldn't be a problem for most, but some mixes may have galactose sugar which would be(think milk or creamy additives). If they are vigilant about researching which drinks or mixes they should avoid, i thing an occasional drink would be fine.
