@tropauer It wasn't my pulmonologist who talked to me about alcohol, but my PCP of over 20 years, who knows I like a cocktail or glass of with dinner. Her advice was a blunt "Don't drink on these meds. The risk of liver damage is greatly increased. " I followed her advice for the almost-two-years on antibiotics, with one exception (okayed by th ID doc) - a holiday from the meds for 2 weeks from my daughter's birthday through New Year's days - and then I imbibe lightly. I finished with no change in liver or kidney function and am still fine 6 years later. (And MAC free.)
