Can you have medicine with a can of coke and a bottle of wine

[StonePaperScissors]

I know it would likely depend on the med I question.

I am having a bad bad bad bad time and bad week. Not going into here.

I have a headache the size of mount Everest. Likely a migraine. I took medicines earlier.

However I am desperate for a drink of something just to try and relax and unwind after all the bullshit and after my week.

I think I need more medicines for sure.

However I really would love a glass of wine too.

The medicine I have that really helps me is solpadine. Could I take that and have some wine?

Solpadeine contains codeine as well as paracetamol and the NHS site recommends no alcohol with codeine.

Hope you feel better soon. Are there any other ways you like to unwind? Read a book? Bath?

It wouldn't be recommended (see here: https://www.nhs.uk/medicines/co-codamol-for-adults/common-questions-about-co-codamol-for-adults/) Can make you feel sleepy which isn't really a problem but also could increase the risk of respiratory depression.

Realistically I would have thought one glass of wine would be OK but you say a bottle in the thread title. That would be a bad idea, not least because it's very unlikely to help with your migraine. Could you try a CBD drink like Trip or HipPop for a tasty and relaxing drink without the side effects?

I take paracetamol and ibuprofen when I’m drinking alcohol

A glass of wine isnt going to kill you.
