How long can I drink alcohol with cephalosporin IV

It is not possible to drink alcohol immediately after cephalosporin injection through intravenous drip, and it is only possible to drink alcohol after stopping the drug for at least 1 week so that it will not cause a disulfiram reaction. Because alcohol and cephalosporin will cause toxic reaction together, disulfiram reaction mainly manifests as facial flushing, palpitations, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and even unstable vital signs, causing a continuous drop in blood pressure, and even leading to respiratory and circulatory failure, resulting in shock and death. If you have already used cephalosporin, you should not touch alcohol for 1 week before and after drinking alcohol.
