Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Can a person take alcohol after radiotherapy?
Please assist.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.
There is no absolute contraindication for alcohol after radiotherapy. It all depends on which condition of radiotherapy is being given. Due to the underlying condition, the liver capacity may be decreased and compromised. In that scenario, the alcohol consumption may increase the liver load.
I appreciate your trust in us and for giving me the chance to serve you.
Our goal is to prioritize your health and help you according to your preferences and needs.
Thank you.
