Is it a problem to drink alcohol if i have a secundum atrial septal defect?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Drinking in moderation (you must know your limits, do not drive etc) is perfectly fine with an asd. Stay responsible and safe, but an ASD itself--without other congenital defects or heart rhythm problems--is not a contraindication to drinking alcohol.
