Can you drink nonalcoholic beer while taking Flagyl?

Answer 1

Okay, first understanding that "alcohol-free" beer actually DOES contain trace amounts of alcohol it it (1/2 of 1 percent). So technically it is not alcohol free. But here is the GOOD NEWS :

I have discovered that you can have 1 or 2 of these non-alcoholic beers and still be okay when taking the drug Flagyl (also called metronidzole). The alcohol content is so low that you will not get that terrible reaction if you consume it in extreme moderation (again, 1 or 2 bears at the most that day).

And while most alcohol-free beers taste like crap, I have discovered O'Douls Amber. You must get the Amber because it tastes okay (unlike the original O'Douls pilsner).

Of course, you won't get the buzz , but that is not the point. This amber O'Douls will offer you a little crutch so that you don't feel entirely deprived for the 7 or 10 days while medicated.

Try it. I did. It gave me a little satisfaction while I was on that antibiotic.

Answer 2

yes but you shouldn't because it weakens the medicine.

Answer 3

It is never a good idea to drink alcohol while on any medications as it usually affects the treatment.
