You can do what ever you like whilst your on medication, but you'll be wasting your time & your doctor's time. For the sake of a few days you might as well try and get better, & then go boozing!!!

It should not be deadly and it shouldn't do you everlasting harm, so do not trouble too about it. those antibiotics ought to improve the outcomes of alcohol, it is why you sense drained. do not drink any more desirable, regardless of the actuality that, or you may do your self some damage. As for a threat-free quantity, it extremely relies upon on the guy. It varies for differing BMIs (body mass indexes), water content fabric interior the body, fat content fabric, muscle content fabric or maybe if you've a tolerance to ethanol (alcohol). again, 2 beers shouldn't do you a lot damage. Edit: "Alcohol must be prevented because metronidazole and alcohol jointly may reason intense nausea, vomiting, cramps, flushing, and headache. Metronidazole can improve the blood thinning outcomes of warfarin (Coumadin) and improve the opportunity of bleeding in all likelihood through reducing the destroy down of warfarin. Cimetidine (Tagamet) will improve blood degrees of metronidazole even as cholestyramine reduces blood degrees of metronidazole through reducing its absorption. " in case you commence to sense any worse, attempt to relax. i'm sorry about the incorrect information in the previous, i did not see the second one drug you'll been prescribed.

It is not recommended. Drinking alcohol won't effect you any differently to how it normally does BUT it will stop the antibiotics from working. Your choice of not having an alcoholic drink for a short period or the antibiotics working & you getting rid of an infection.

Its a myth that you cant drink on antibiotics. There are a couple of rare ones that you cant but your doctor would have been sure to tell you if prescribed them. They do make you become drunk quicker so i think thats where people get mixed up. Also, if you are ill drinking can make you feel worse but i dont think it interferes with the pills. Have a couple but dont overdo it, you'll be fine with amoxicillin. Lifes too short eh?
P.S Type 'alcohol and antibiotics' into google and you will see i am right.

YES YOU CAN!
it won't affect the drug what so ever
or the alcohol
the only reason you are told not to drink is because a break from beer is good for you, but, it will not enhance or ruin the drug effect.
the only effect it has with alcohol is it may give you diarrhea (the shits) after a few drinks, BUT, it will not effect the drug, just your bum hole

No ! I'm on the same ones at the minute for a ear infection, if you drink it just renders the tablets useless, your'd be better off not taking them

no your doctor should have told you that alcohol isnt to be taken with this medicine or any other other anti-biotic, also if your on the pill be careful as some medications can stop it from working

Amoxicillan is fine. Metronizadol is a different kettle of fish. It's a close cousin of Antabuse, which is prescribed to recovering alcoholics and will leave you with the mother of all hangovers, but it is mainly used for dental problems so you should be OK unless you have been prescribed this.

Yes but while the alcohol is in your body (about 12 hours) your tablets wont work properly.
