Taking cefdinir for a uti. can i drink alcohol on it? one drink? or can i have more?

Contrary to common beliefs, alcohol does not significantly interfere with any antibiotics. Don't get tanked, but moderate alcohol intake is not likely to affect cefdinir or resolution of your UTI.

not a good idea to take alcohol withmeds- due to inactivation/ interferenceetc. Besides you should not take alcohol if you have a uti- as it is a urinary tract irritant. drink water instead.
