I recently began taking chinese medicine, zhong yao, that a doctor prescribed. Is it okay to drink alcohol?


Question:
I recently began taking chinese medicine, zhong yao, that a doctor or "specialist" prescribed. I boil these figs and plants in a pot and the outcome is a very dark, almost black, soup that tastes really bitter. I drink it twice a day, after I wake up and 30 minutes before I sleep. It's supposed to help me grow taller (I'm 17 right now) and my doctor says that theres still a chance for anyone to grow taller as long as they are under the age of 25. I'm also not supposed to consume anything spicy or cold. Is it okay to drink alcohol or smoke pot? Will it change the effects of this medicine?

Thank you.

Answers:
I have never heard of such a bizarre treatment in my life! Are you sure the "doctor" is a real doctor?? If you are sure he is, which for some reason I highly doubt, then I would ask him about the possibility of a reaction to the alcohol. As far as the pot goes, don't know who you could ask about that for obvious reasons! Good luck and take care!!
Ask your doctor but smoking pot goes well with anything...
Your 17 and worried about your height and you want to know if you can drink alcohol or smoke pot? NO!!! You are under age and pot is illegal! What is wrong with the youth of today??
