Question: Does taking pills after drinking some alcohol do you any harm!?

Answers:
it effects the liver!. Some pills are harsh on the liver, and mixing alchohol, can heavily tax the liver's job!.

For example, when vicodin in high doses is taken with small to moderate quantities of alcohol, the danger of acute "acetaminophen" toxic effects on the liver are increased!.

These liver effects can be both chronic and acute, and unfortunately, it only takes a single incidence of excessive "acetaminophen and alcohol" consumption to induce liver failure and with it the likelihood of an eventually fatal condition!.

So, taking Tylenol or a generic equivelant can be fatal!.

also mixing "downers" or "anxiety" meds can be effected by alchohol!.

(I had a friend die in his mid forties because he drank alchohol on top of "opiates")Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends on what medication your taking!.
With some it can be fatal!.( slight chance but still a chance)!.
With others it would just weaken the effects of the medication!.

You should read the drug interactions with alcohol before taking a certain med after of before drinking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
