I’m on 20mg slow-release Methylphenidate a day (taken in the mornings) and haven’t had any alcohol since I started taking meds last fall. And even before that I could count on one hand the times I’d drink alcohol in a year.

But I used to be a big whisk(e)y afficionado and have started to really crave a glass of my favourite single malt scotch.

I asked my doctor if I could drink a little bit of alcohol in the evening every once in a blue moon and he said yes, but I’m still hesitant. Does anyone here have any experience in this regard?

    Lots of ADHD meds are prescribed to be used as needed, it depends on the medication

      Yeah, so you should ask your doctor instead of just doing it.
