2 hour after Ecosprin

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

You can take alcohol 2 hours after taking ecosprin.
But I would like to add here that Ecosprin and alcohol when taken together can lead to gastritis, so i recommend that you take Tab Omeprazole before food on the days you have decided to consume alcohol.

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

Yes, it is important that you stop smoking immediately. You can drink in moderation, please do not drink more than 2-3 times a day.
You can take alcohol after 6 hours of taking ecosprin, it will not cause a reaction.

I hope I was of help
