In short, DO NOT DRINK WHILE YOU ARE ON DRUGS.

Rankett is right on, DO NOT DRINK WHILE YOU ARE ON DRUGS.  Especially on certain antibiotics - drinking can cause dangerous interactions with the drugs.  I don't know if yours would have this kind of interaction, but for God's sake why even chance it?  How long's your drug regimen?  A week?  Two?  Surely you can go that long without drinking.
