HELP!!!

Please!!!!!!

I was wondering if having a few drinks while on prozac is a good idea. My bf's b-day is monday and he's turning 21.

Generally, it's not a good idea to drink while taking ADs; it can decrease the drug's effect on mood, but plenty of folks do it anyway. Some get very sick from it, some don't. A friend of mine says every drink is like having two and the hangover is hell. Some people have no trouble at all--go figure.

So, it probably won't kill you, but you may not enjoy the results. I would have one or two tops and see what happens.

Good luck and Happy Birthday to your b/f, I remember when I was 21--actually, I don't. I'm sure I was having a hell of good time though.

Thanks so much!! I am about ten months older than him but my parents were/are super strict. I wasn't allowed to go to any parties where other parents wouldn't be at. His parents are much much more relaxed about drinking and other things. He bought me my first drink around easter. hope you have a good night
