Can I drink alcohol after wisdom tooth removal?

I will have my wisdom tooth removed tomorrow, but I have a party the day after. I want to know, is it okay to drink alcohol shortly after a wisdom tooth removal?

If you are taking medication, you want to avoid mixing meds with alcohol. Mixing alcohol with meds can lead to serious complications such as loss of coordination, vomiting, drowsiness, and a number of other negative effects. Alcohol can also weaken or nullify the effects of the meds. If not taking meds, remember: Nothing in excess; moderation is the key, and give your body plenty of fluids like water to help the healing process.
Depends on how difficult the extraction is. I would not drink.
You should not get alcohol after the surgery, it is also cause some adverse effects with your meds.
The short answer is no. You should be on antibiotics after the removal. If so, you should follow the instructions on the label which usually states not to drink while on them. Cheers. Happy birthday!
According to the instructions there is no limitation for not having alcohol but as far as the healing is concerned it might delay the healing, therefore avoid taking after surgical extractions
Yes as long as you are not taking any pain medicine at the same time.
