No, NEVER mix the two..
As you're taking a drug that resists nausea, its completely counter-productive to drink whilst on it because alcohol is a depressant that attacks the nervous system directly you are going to confuse your brain and will end up feeling nauseous as a result..
It is NEVER ever a good idea to mix alcohol and drugs, prescribed, legal, illegal or otherwise.. My friend learned the hard way, and it was fatal..
I suggest to stop taking the drugs for 24 hours before you drink, if you really want to drink..
Look after yourself, the body is far more precious than we realise..

If there are any known effects they should be in the leaflet.. This said, leaflets have been wrong in the past, and alcohol is a toxin, so my advice would be to avoid it whilst your body sorts itself out and while you're on the tablets..Health Question & Answer
Mixing drugs and alcohol is never advisable no matter what it says on the leaflet.. You are taking the medication because you don't want to feel ill, are you not.?Health Question & Answer
I can't find anything that says you should avoid alcohol while taking it; however if you are taking it to prevent nausea, drinking seems counter productive..Health Question & Answer
