I would not, unless you are experiencing an unexpected reaction/symptom that suggest otherwise.

Not concerning for a one time use and spaced out. However, given your age and being on prescribed benzos and having alcohol at times is a recipe for disaster in the long run. Would suggest having a discussion with your prescriber regarding other options for treatment.
