Booze, Weed, and Amoxicillin

[Andrew Fletcher]

Anyone have any good stories about mixing either booze or weed with Amoxicillin? We have rubgy elections tonight (lots of drinking) and I'm taking Amoxicillin for an infection.

Should turn into a good story.

Booze reduces the effectiveness of most antibiotics. Usually they say on the package not to drink with them. They won't get you any more [censored] up though if that's what you're asking.

Nothing special will happen if you mix alcohol/weed with Amoxicillan.

So, no purple elephants or anything, Sorry to disapoint.

I thought alcohol helps to carry prescription drugs into the bloodstream, consequently enhancing the effects?

Yea enjoy getting sicker when the antib's don't work cause you killed it with Booze.

Smoke if you want, AntiB's arent "narcotics" . they have no reactions really. Enoguh of them will only get you sick not high

Alcohol is synergistic with some prescription drugs but it has to do with interactions in the brain (in the example of booze and painkillers, they affect the same receptors in teh brain) not because of some kind of pharmacokinetic effect.
And what would increasing the speed of antibiotic absorbtion do that you would enjoy?

Amoxicillan is an antibiotic. This class of drug has absolutely no recreational value, and you will derive no high from it.

Alcohol will definately potentiate the effects of certains classes of commonly abused drugs like barbituates (quaaludes), benzodiazepines (valium, xanax), opiates (oxycontin, vicodin), and skeleto-muscle relaxers (cyclobenzaprine).

you will definitely get a different kind a buzz when drinking on antibiotics. its not too intense you are just a little lighheaded and groggy i guess.

its very very bad for your liver tho.

[Andrew Fletcher]

Man, this thread is a buzz killer.

So I should drink? Damn.
