Anytime you take a drug while taking another they will be in competition with each other. Some more than others. I ended up with acute hepatitis (liver enzymes over 900) from being on Prozac and being given a hefty dose of antibiotics for a blood infection. Now I have my liver enzymes checked every 6 months or so. Drinking alcohol with meds compromises your ability to break down either the meds or the alcohol. That is why some people get super drunk from one drink while on some AD's etc. Liver metabolism is very selective from person to person so some people seem like they can handle alot of different medication while others can't. Its trial and error but not the type of trial and error you want to mess with.
