Question:

I just got 1 of my bottom wisdom teeth out 3 days ago it was infected so im on penicillin and on tylenol 3's im having a huge family get together and everyone is drinking it says on my do's and dont's not to drink for 1 week but you can smoke after 48 hours what do you guys have to say about this is it a good idea or should i wait?

Answers:
Bad idea to drink yet. Alcohol tends to thin the blood and it could cause blood clots that have occured in the pockets where your teeth were to open up and you could start bleeding.

Wait.it's not a good idea to mix alcohol with drugs.just ask Elvis

Tylenol 3's have codeine in them, not wise to mix with alcohol. Wait till your antibiotics and pain killers regime is over, before you drink. Follow the instructions from the doctor. Alcohol will thin the blood and could cause a dry socket to happen. Also, if you are taking Tylenol with codeine, then mixing that with alcohol could do harm.

When in doubt, call the dentist.

Do U think They would waste their money to put useless warnings on drugs bottles!

Be sensible 48 hours or more, it ain't gonna kill U!
It's a bad bad idea to mix the 2.
When U've finished the Penicillin U can drink all you like!

If you don't take the tylenol 3's! I would not be drinking and taking penicillin and tylenol 3's---penicillian is to prevent infection, and if you drink alcohol then that is preventing the penicillian to do its job, and you should never drink when taking tylenol 3's as they have codine in them.
