Woozie asked:

If I drink alcohol (was a very small amount, two 10oz bottles that were only 5% alcohol by volume) how long should I wait until I take my sleeping meds (Tylenol simply sleep)? It says on the bottle not to take the pills with alcohol. I’m wondering how long I should wait until I take my pills.

Well, considering how you typed the initial question wrong. Don’t take any of the meds tonight with the alcohol you already consumed.

Please remember that the pharmaceutical companies are all terrified of lawsuits. They put as many cautions, warnings, and notices as possible onto the package to provide advance notice and avoid lawsuits.

If you wish to be especially cautious, you can use the ‘One drink per hour” rule, and wait 2 hours after drinking before taking the sleeping aid.

You’re talking about a very small amount of alcohol and a very mild sleeping aid. If you are healthy in every way and had something to eat the same evening, you should be able to take a normal dose without waiting.
