Can i drink alcohol while taking nitrofurantoin?

Yes, but why?: There is a theoretical possibility that the antibiotic will be less effective. If you are taking it for a urinary tract infection, drinking nonalcoholic beverages, particularly cranberry juice, will help clear the infection.

No: Taking alcohol is never good for you and taking it while you are on medication is doubly bad. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low fat milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
