Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
As a principle it can be said that never mix your medications with alcohol or any form of substance and the same is applicable in your case.
However if it is very necessary to have a drink or two with close friends, 30-60 ml of standard alcohol (40%) can be taken by an adult without any significant health hazards. This is important to remember that exercising safe limits is as important as other means to protect health.
I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
