Alcohol is generally not allowed for anti-inflammatory injections, as it can easily cause disulfiram-like reactions or induce adverse reactions. Anti-inflammatory injections are injections with antibacterial effects, which are mostly seen in the clinic in drugs such as ceftriaxone, cefazolin, clindamycin, penicillin sodium and so on. In general, you can’t drink alcohol with anti-inflammatory injections, mainly because it will delay the condition, aggravate the discomfort and affect the treatment. If alcohol is consumed while using cephalosporin-based anti-inflammatory injections, it is likely to cause disulfiram-like reactions. Patients will experience symptoms such as facial flushing, excessive sweating, abnormal blood pressure, dizziness, difficulty in breathing, and in severe cases, shock, which is life-threatening. In addition to this, if other types of anti-inflammatory drugs are used, drinking alcohol increases the chances of adverse reactions to a certain extent, such as abdominal pain, headache, fatigue and other symptoms. All in all, patients need to manage their diet better during anti-inflammatory injections and avoid drinking alcohol or consuming food containing alcohol. If any discomfort occurs during the medication period, they need to go to the hospital in time.
