I assume you are referring to drinking alcohol. It is not advisable. The kidneys filter the fluids in your body to get rid of toxins, the result is urine. When you have a kidney infection the kidneys can not work as efficiently and effectively as normal so you should avoid making them work harder than necessary by not consuming toxins such as alcohol. Doing this could cause damage to the kidneys that may be irreversible. Damage to kidneys can lead to kidney failure, which is not a nice condition to have and can ultimately result in the need for a kidney transplant.

A kidney infection does not usually last too long and can be helped on its way by making sure you get your 1.5 Lts of plain water a day during the illness. A week of so of abstinence from alcohol during these times can save a lifetime of pain and illness in the future.
