Does amoxicillin affect you in any way when drinking alcohol?

Not recommended: It is generally not recommended to drink alcoholic beverages while on antibiotics. Best to finish the full course before drinking alcohol.

Not really: No problem taking penicillin class antibiotics with alcohol but keep it in moderation. If you have a significant infection it would be best to abstain until the infection has resolved.
