can you drink alchohol the same day as having general anaesthetic
For your own health don't drink in excess but you should at least not drink alcohol for two days prior to an anaesthetic. The effects of other drug use on anaesthesia are complicated and it is best, if possible, to avoid using them around the time of the anaesthetic.he effects of anaesthetic drugs appear to purely occur when the drug is in your body and have no long term effects. Regardless of how long an operation you have or how many anaesthetics you have, if you do not have a problem during the operation, there is no evidence to suggest that you could have a late effect.
