It's not a good idea. Lansoprazole (Prevacid) is a Proton Pump Inhibitor which is indicated for GERD (Gastro-esophageal reflux disease), which is a severe form of heart burn. In GERD the lower esophageal sphincter relaxes, allowing acid into your esophagus. Alcohol will also act to relax the sphincter, counter acting what you're trying to stop. It can also make you more prone to any of the side-effects of lansoprazole (Nausea, Diarrhea, Rash, Headache). When it comes to mixing alcohol with medications, the general rule of thumb is don't do it.
