Take drugs at least 4 hours apart after drinking, but the specific time is related to the type of drug. Taking drugs after drinking alcohol will promote the decomposition of drug enzymes and increase the activity of drug enzymes, leading to an increase in drug metabolism and a decrease in drug properties, and taking drugs immediately after drinking alcohol will cause a second injury to the body. Therefore, drugs that do not react with alcohol can be taken at least 4 hours after drinking; drugs that can react with alcohol should be taken 24 hours or longer after drinking and after the excretion of alcohol in the body to avoid adverse reactions and damage to the liver. If you need to take cephalosporin antibiotics because of inflammation, you should avoid drinking alcohol for 1 week. In addition, alcohol can cause damage to the stomach and liver, and drugs that can damage the stomach and liver should not be taken after drinking alcohol. To ensure life safety, patients should not take medication after drinking alcohol, and if medication is needed, avoid drinking alcohol for 1 week.
