DON'T drink tomorrow night. the antibiotics are still in your system....the alcohol will decrease the effectiveness of the antibiotics. i have also known people to get ill from having an alcoholic drink hours after they finish their last antibiotic....i DON'T recommend it it all.

I wouldn't suggest it. The antibiotics will still be in your system tomorrow night. Its best to give yourself a couple of days after taking the last pill before drinking.

It isn't that it's not safe..it's that the alcohol will lessen the power of the antibiotics and drinking so soon after may make you have a bad re-action. It (alcohol ) interferes with the chemical balance of the body which makes the antibiotics lose some of their potency..Antibiotics continue to work in your body for up to three or four days AFTER you have finished them, so a drink tomorrow would still interfere.But it is totally your call.

Don't drink Alcohol, It's not good for the brain cells! Then you don't have to worry about effects with antibiotics.
As far as I know alcohol reduces the ability for antibiotics to work. and usually by the time you come to end of your prescription. they have done their job.
