The day after I moved to Germany I went to the hospital emergency room with what was later diagnosed as a kidney stone and stomach infection.
I was given over the counter painkillers and some cramp medication and told to drink lots of beer to treat the stomach infection by the doctor.
I am serious. I asked about the complications drinking on the pain meds and he just said it was OK.
mixing those meds with alcohol fucks your liver
Was "fuck your liver" as in "once is enough to fuck your liver" or as in "do this every day over a month to see any significant damage" kind of thing.
depends on the painkiller. Tylenol? Yeah goodbye liver. Ibuprofen? Better eat something alongside so your stomach lining doesnt get fucked.
