My doctor used to say 1-2 drinks with food, slowly, was fine. As dosage went up and we made changes, he said none at all. Which I largely have followed though once in awhile have a half glass of wine with a sparkling water. It's not fun to not even be able to have a beer with friends. The last time I had more than one drink i was really sedated and majorly slowed me down. Not fun. Don't drink is my advice.
