If one is going to question whether drug addicts can drink, you need to look at whether alcoholics can take drugs.
Back in 1988 I started in AA. After quite a few years of total abstinence from anything and everything (except nicotine and caffeine/when I started AA I started caffeine) my doctor put me on medication for depression and anxiety. When Old timers in AA found out, I was shunned. In their eyes I was no longer sober.
I unfortunately believed them. I was told, after the fact, I should not have told anyone, but then I am not being honest.
