Valve replacement surgery is heart valve surgery, and alcohol is not recommended even fourteen years after heart valve surgery. After heart valve surgery, some patients may need to take lifelong anticoagulant drugs such as rivaroxaban, etc. Anticoagulant drugs may cause damage to liver function, and alcohol metabolized by the liver will also damage liver function, so if you drink alcohol after heart valve surgery, it may aggravate the chances of adverse reactions to the drugs, resulting in liver function abnormalities. In addition, drinking alcohol will also stimulate the nervous system, causing the heart rate to accelerate, resulting in arrhythmia and other conditions. Therefore, it is not recommended to drink alcohol even after 14 years of heart valve replacement. It is recommended that heart valve surgery patients follow up regularly and adjust their diets and medications under the guidance of specialized doctors.
