Just a quick question for you. I am a 30 year old male who experiences benign PVC's. My doctor has put me on 25 mg Atenolol twice a day. I excercise 6 days a week, do not use caffeine or suger and hardly ever drink. I am getting married in a month and having a bachalor party in the near future. My question is can you consume alcohol while taking Atenolol. I am aware of the negetive effects of alcohol and PVC's but this would be a rare time. I have heard a very mixed opinion from both doctors and pharmacy techs. concerning Atenolol and alcohol. Any information on this would be much apprciated. I would also like to thank you for having this forum and being such an incredible help.
