Today we will take it apart and talk about the interaction of different drugs and alcohol.
First of all, the conclusion, no matter what medicine you are taking, what kind of wine you drink, as long as you are taking medicine, don't drink alcohol.
Simply and crudely speaking, the combination of alcohol and drugs generally has two results:
Reduce the efficacy and enhance the efficacy.
Just enhancing this effect may not be what we need, but a terrible side effect.
If there is any way to solve this problem, it can only be waited for one of the alcohol or drugs to be metabolized. The metabolism rate of alcohol is relatively fast, according to the general amount of alcohol consumption of most people, the half-life of alcohol is 4 to 5 hours, and complete metabolism may take about 1 day. And the metabolism of drugs is fast and slow, fast tens of minutes, slow may take a week, waiting and waiting, may not want to drink so much.
If a little idiot remembers that he took the medicine after drinking, remember to closely observe whether he has symptoms of discomfort, and if so, be sure to go to the hospital in time, or call 120.
(Now, that's an excuse to stop drinking during the New Year's Holidays.) Transfer away the collection, no thanks! ）
