Hi can someone help me please? I will be 60 next Thursday and having a party on the Saturday!!!
I take 50mg Amitryptaline at night and 200 Tramadol twice daily.
I would love to have a few drinks at my party, can anyone tell me if it would be ok to drink with them? do I stay off the medication a couple days before or can I continue with both medication and drink???
I really need your help...I dont want to end up in hospital or something because I have mixed them.
thankyou

I was on both these plus alot more and used to drink everynight. Had little or no effect but your doctor will tell you that the meds wont work if alcohol is taken. I would think if you are only havin a few should'nt cause any harm, however i am not a doctor.

Vig, don't worry about having a few, this should not cause you for alarm. I would suggest have a drink, then have a glass of water or two. Eat small bites of something that will sustain you and have yourself another drink, then repeat the water. You don't want to have unpleasant experience.
