Hello. i drunk alcohol around sunday morning at 4am. is it ok if i start my antibiotics today since it has been 24hrs? the medicine is flagyl?

The ethanol should be wee out of your system by 24 hours after ingestion. Taking Flagyl should be okay. There would be nausea as a known side effect if any remaining alcohol were present.
