Can u drink alcohol while being treaten wit antibotics for a std. will the alcohol affect tha antibiotics from working?

No, it will not: Some antibiotics can increase the tendency for ethanol to cause unpleasant symptoms and/or decrease apparent "tolerance" but should not affect effectiveness of treatment.
