According to the FDA....
Many different types of drugs are used to treat infections caused by bacteria and fungi. Some general advice to follow when taking any such product is:
Tell your doctor about any skin rashes you may have had with antibiotics or that you get while taking this medication. A rash can be a symptom of an allergic reaction, and allergic reactions can be very serious.
Tell your doctor if you experience diarrhea.
If you are using birth control, consult with your health care provider because some methods may not work when taken with antibiotics.
Be sure to finish all your medication even if you are feeling better.
Take with plenty of water.
Interaction
Food: Take on an empty stomach, but if it upsets your stomach, take it with food.
This says nothing about staying away from alcohol, but remember that it does dehydrate you. It doesn't seem that alcohol will lower the effectiveness of the drug or cause a severe reaction.

You should never drink alcohol while taking any kind of antibiotic because alcohol eliminates the effect of the anitibiotic. In order for the amoxicillin treatment to work you have to take all the doses according to prescrption. If you skip any doses (or eliminate the effect of one with alcohol) it's almost as if you didn't take the treatment at all.
Mising the two won't make you sick or anything, but will jeopardize the success of the treatment you're on.

You could, but you should never ever drink alcohol while on any type of medication. It effects the way it is suppose to work.

You shouldn't drink alcohol with any medication. For that matter, alcohol simply isn't the safest stuff around, period, but you should never drink while taking any medication.

I wouldn't do it in anyway shape perform... The amoxicillin wouldn't do any effect in you. Watch out, for drinking alcohol and mixing drugs can send you to hell. You should ask the Lord Jesus Christ to help with your drinking problem. Believe me, it's the best thing you could do. When you drink alcohol, you open portholes to demons and they will guide you to do what ever is not correct in the eyes of the Lord. The Lord Jesus Christ knows you. He knows all that you do, think and he even will visit you in your dreams. Talk to him, and you will see the result. Tell him to help you and he will do so. You really need him, at least you owe it to yourself. When people drink, they don't get any stronger but weaker, each day, by doing unworthy things, things that God wouldn't want man to do. That which is incorrect unto the eyes of our Lord and Saviour. He loves us but if we don't get to know him, we wouldn't get to know His will. He wants the best for us. But, since we are in flesh and blood, we cannot recognize Him. His great love for us is because he Created us in his own image. (Genesis 1:27). We need Him as much as He needs us. Look for Him. He wants to equip us for us to do his work here on Hearth. He has blessed you already. (Ephesians 1:3; 6:10-17). (Joshua 1:8-9); (1John 3:19-24); (1John 5:14-15); "This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. An if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have what we asked of Him." (James 1:6-7). "But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double minded man, unstable in all he does." (Isaiah 26:3) You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you."
Do this prayer
Father God, I do believed that Jesus Christ died to save us and give us eternal life. That He was raised and for so He reigns for ever and evermore. And because I believe in Jesus, I'm saved. Please Lord, forgive my sins as I forgive those who have hurt me. Thank you Father in the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
Believe me, He heard your prayer. (Jeremiah 33:3).

You shouldn't because it lowers the effectiveness of the antibiotic.

It's a good way to induce vomiting. They don't mix well.
