A member asked:
I have a peptic ulcer) and a really bad sore throat. i have medicine but it contain alcohol but it says it's an inactive ingredient. should i take it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be ok: Itis true that alcohol can be a stomach irritant, but the amount in an over the counter medication is usually limited. You may want to use some ranititdine (zantac) 150 mg twice a day to protect your stomach while on this medication.
