I am taking antibiotics (amoxicillin) for an ear infection, can I have a drink tonight?

Yes, you can have a drink while taking amoxicillin for an ear infection. There are only certain antibiotics that interact with alcohol, and amoxicillin is not one of them. The general recommendation to avoid alcohol when you have an infection is mainly because alcohol can weaken the immune system. So, it should be fine to have a drink while on amoxicillin.
