Dr. James Rotchford answered

Specializes in Addiction Medicine

Alcohol is alcohol: No matter how the alcohol is formed the issue is how alcohol interacts with you and any medicine. Alcohol interferes with sexual function so it is contra-indicated if sexual dysfunction present. I suggest you get formal support regarding your relationship with alcohol. I suspect this help would also improve your sex life.
