Yes, it's safe. Somehow many people have come to believe that alcohol doesn't mix with antibiotics or interfere's with antibiotic effectiveness. It's an urban myth. Don't get tanked, but a a few drinks is fine.

No. Alcohol is a poison that never did anybody any good, ever, so stay away from it. It will destroy your brain cells, facilitate development of cancer in many organs, including breast, cause hepatitis, cirrhosis and pancreatitis etc. There is no safe level of alcohol intake. Quit while you are ahead.
