Hello, Claire! How are you?
First, alcohol lowers your seizure threshold, so drinking if you have epilepsy is never a good idea.
Second, alcohol can worsen the side effects of medications, so as listed by the FDA, you may experience more nausea, dizziness and drowsiness than usual. Basically one drink may affect you the same as having 2 or 3 and so on.
Thus, unless your doctor clears you to have a couple drinks, it would be best not to imbibe.
Is there anything else I can help with?
