  Hey @ellie2000, Are you able to explain a little more about what you've read in the new scientist?

  What scientist do you mean? You do have to be careful with alcohol on most antidepressants because if you have a dependency on alcohol the meds are unlikely to work, but in my experience moderate drinking has been ok. But it's always best to ask your doctor if you're not sure about something with your meds

  It’s definitely worth having a chat with your GP about that, they’d be better placed to give you the actual medical side of this. It very much depends on how you personally react to alcohol and your relationship with it

  Hi @ellie2000
  
  Thanks for all your wonderful questions. I can see @Brookee and @independent_ have responded to your questions. I just want to add that there may be a label on your medication boxes (or in the leaflets) giving you more information about usage. I am just wondering if this clarifies the answers to your questions?
