Pain medications mixed with Tranquilizers, Barbituates, and OR Alcohol is the leading cause of death while taking pain medications. I also have to say that RSD can lower your breathing rate and so do some medications. Mixed with alcohol they could cause you to not be able to breath, pass out, or have seizures. PLEASE Be Careful Amey and anyone who drinks and has to use

medications. After over 5yrs of RSD, I found that my limit is a girlie drink with dinner. Depending on how big the glass is, I only drink half of it most of the time and have only drank 3 times in a one year span. READ YOUR BOTTLES: IT WILL TELL YOU NOT TO MIX IT WITH ALCOHOL IF THAT IS WHAT THE FDA/MANUFACTURERS FEEL. Advice with only love and care,Rhonda
