You are twenty five and you have to ask that question! Common sense would tell you not to drink alcohol when taking any kind of medication. Why not use the brain God gave you!

Well if you look on the label it usually tells you if you can drink alcohol with the medication. If it doesnt say then call the pharmacy or a doctor and ask them.

NO I don't think it's wise to do that it will lower the antibiotic effect it will cut it in half
