Alcohol may increase the toxic effect of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Advil. Specifically, the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding may be increased with this combination

The risk of bleeding may be greater or lesser. This depends on the dose of Avil ingested, the amount of alcohol consumed and other risk factors (taking other medications, having certain active diseases, etc.)

Regular consumption of alcohol and Advil is not recommended. It is advisable to limit alcohol consumption during treatment with Advil
