Happy Birthday ! : Reaching majority age is an important milestone in life, and celebrating is good for body and spirit. Not necessarily you need to drink it all when you turn 21. If you are only having a couple of drinks, nothing serious will happen, except getting tipsy and go to sleep. Remember not to mix your medications with alcohol. Enjoy your special day and drink as little as you can.

Alcohol and Medicati: I understand your desire to celebrate. Alcohol with Methylphenidate may increase anxiety, depression and seizures. Alcohol with Fluvoxamine may increase dizziness, difficulty concentrating. impairment in thinking and judgment. Feel the Blessings and Wonders of your body and mind. Feel good about your achievements of 21 years. Follow with psychiatrist for side effects of Medications, and Therapy.
