A member asked:
I took 1 tablet of neurofen for cold and flu (200mg ibuprofen, phenylephrine) 5 hours ago and going for drinks in an hr. should i drink?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Better not: While it is generally considered acceptable to have no more than one drink while on these medications, I advise my patients not to drink within 24 hrs of taking these drugs. It is just safer that way.
