Hello, Maggsg! How are you?
The FDA strongly cautions against indulging in alcohol while taking any prescription medication. Alcohol tends to worsen the side effects, so could feel more dizziness, nausea and drowsiness than usual. Thus, one drink may affect you as if you'd had 2 and so on.
However, if your doctor does clear it for you to do this and have a couple drinks, then please make sure you won't be driving or doing anything dangerous.
Is there anything else I can help with?
