depence on the med, in venlafaxine for example you can drink moderate
amounts without any bad effects, as long as your not doing it every day.
once a week its ok for 2-3 drinks.
bare in mind though that when your on venlafaxine you get a bit
easier drunk.

This along with most other psych meds recommend abstaining or limited use at best. None say... "Have one on me!". My feeling is, if you're asking, then don't.

Positive thoughts
