When cephalosporin and alcohol are taken together, a series of symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, flushing and palpitations will occur, which is clinically known as ”disulfiram-like reaction” and can lead to death in severe cases, so it is prohibited to take both together. In addition to cephalosporins, there are also drugs such as metronidazole and furazolidone that can cause it. Also antipyretics, sedatives, antihypertensives, hypotensive drugs and hypoglycemic drugs can cause serious adverse reactions when taken together with alcohol and should be avoided.
