Is it safe to take alprazolam with alcohol?
No, it is not "safe" to consume alcohol if you are regularly taking alprazolam. Any psychiatrist will underscore this. Will it kill you if you do have a drink after taking this medication? No. Could it cause much more anxiety and panic than yo already have? Absolutely. In other words, if you are taking this medication, you are taking it for a reason. Consuming alcohol negates the entire purpose of getting this treatment to begin with

How long should you wait for an answer?
if you are waiting for someone, wait for about an hour, then leave and move on
I would say, wait only about twenty to thirty minutes for a friend. An hour is too much of an imposition to you.
20mins max! its the 21st century we all have cell phones now
Lateness is just another form of rudeness [with the exception of an emergency ]. 15 minutes, and they can call with an apology and an explanation when it is convenient for them, obviously.

#1. People with cardiac arrhythmia should not drink alcohol except with express permission of their cardiologist.

Can you drink alcohol while taking Zoloft?
If you drink on a regular basis, you will get accustomed to it, over Christmas break I had a lot of partying nights and actually was able to drink more while on Zoloft ( 100mg/day) than without it. If you don't normally drink often though, 2 beers will get you drunk. Just be careful and really pace yourself if you decide you are going to drink against the cautions of your doctor and the directions for taking it.
I am currently on 100mg of zoloft and i drink either Friday or Saturday night pretty heavily (just one night a week) and to start off with it makes me get drunk ten times faster than before I was on the zoloft. I get more stupid and also pass out quicker and am very tired. It doesn't say not to take the two together my doc says it just intensifies the effect.
AnswerIt is recommended that you do not drink while on sertraline/Zoloft. Alcohol is a depressant, and conflicts with your brain whilst taking anti-depressants.
However, the affects of alcohol with Zoloft depend on the person for the most part. I have been taking Zoloft for several months, and I drink quite a bit. For the first week of being on the medication I didn't drink at all; then I started to drink heavily. The only effects of this I noticed were that the alcohol took to my system much more quickly, meaning I got drunk a lot quicker than normal, and that when I stopped drinking I would sink quite badly into depression. I've now been able to control this a bit better by going to bed straight away after drinking.
However I know that other people on the same medication react differently to it, but on the whole the effects seem to be similar. I am not a medical professional and I have no experience in the department except my own experience on Zoloft. In short, it's fine to do it, but you will get drunk faster and may suffer from depression badly afterwards.

Answeryou are taking a SSRI. it loads serotonin into your brain which makes you happy. alcohol is a depressant. so what that means is. your therapy with the SSRI will cease to be effective. then you will start thinking that the medication doesn't work. but the real reason it's not working is because you are drinking. so that's why it's not smart to drink when taking an anti-depressant.Can you drink alcohol while taking birth control?

Alcohol combines with many medicines in what is known as "synergistic effect," which can make the combination stronger than either chemical on its own. This is especially dangerous when the medicine is also a central nervous system depressant.

It's not so much a matter of reaction as it is efficacy. Alcohol is a depressant and Prozac is an antidepressant. Excessive alcohol use/abuse counteracts the antidepressant effects of Prozac. Basically, it will not work as well, if at all.
Also, when there is a reaction, individuals who are on Prozac and use alcohol can experience intoxication more easily and readily. As a result, poor impulsivity and judgment can occur.
