Is It Safe To Drink Alcohol After Colonoscopy Procedure?

I had a colonoscopy this morning. I m told no alcohol tonight because I was sedated. Is this mostly a smart general warning or a hard-and-fast rule? Some doctors on the web seem to say that there is no problem with moderate drinking. What do you think about a couple of drinks, at home with my wife, and involving no driving and strenuous physical activity?
