If you drink, find out if it's safe to drink while taking a prescription drug. If you're not sure, assume that it's not okay-and don't do it. Accidents can happen. But they don't happen as often to people who are smart enough to avoid them. And that's the simplest fact of all.
All alcoholic beverages contain about the same amount of alcohol.
Beer and wine contain more water , but have the same potential for problems. Cocaine and alcohol cancel each other out, enabling party people to stay straight longer. In fact, the body converts the breakdown products of cocaine and alcohol into a different chemical, cocaethylene , which is twice as deadly as cocaine is all by itself. Aspirin increases the stomach's absorption of alcohol, particularly when taken an hour or so before drinking. If anything, it increases the odds of a hangover.
