Are there any negative effects if you binge drink whilst taking the antibiotic Erythromycin?

Twill make you verrrrry sick!

I am actually allergic to Erythromycine and it is surprising how many doctors are still trying to prescribe it to me!

Just call up any local pharmacy and ask the pharmasist. They will know.

Since antibiotics are processed out by your liver and kidneys (whatever your body doesn't use) it can be dangerous to add additional things (like alcohol) to your system, making your kidneys and liver work even harder.

Also, some antibiotics cause an upset stomach. By drinking too much alcohol, you can further irritate your stomach, or even cause bleeding.
