As a healthcare professional, it is not advised to drink alcohol while on anti-depressants as alcohol is a known depressant as well. However, a small amount, and I repeat a very small amount as in under 1 drink, every once in a while is very unlikely to cause any significant side effects. However, this depends on the person which is why most websites and healthcare professionals will just tell the patient no alcohol at all.
If you do choose to go against the advice and drink alcohol, please be on the lookout for side-effects such as "breathing problems, glaucoma, kidney or liver disease, depression, and suicidal thoughts." It may also increase drowsiness, so be careful if you are driving or doing anything else that requires full attention the next day.
You can always ask your pharmacist if you are not entirely certain of the side effects or of taking alcohol with your drug. They are willing and happy to help you if you ask.
