How long should i wait to drink after taking sulfameth/trimethoprim?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No need to wait: Alcohol in moderation doesn't interfere with sulfa/trimethoprim. Same for almost all antibiotics. Large amounts of alchohol interfere with the immune system fighting infection, so don't overdo it. Otherwise no worries.
