How quickly following a course of antibiotics can you drink alcohol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: A glass of wine won't hurt you with most antibiotics. After you finish a course of antibiotics, it takes 1-2 days for the metabolism of most. So alcohol after that time is ok. Remember moderation always for your overall health!
