Resuming Normal Activities

Alcoholic Beverages

Do not drink alcoholic beverages. Alcohol must be broken down by the liver. This process can lead to liver damage. Also, medications such as PROGRAF®, SANDIMMUNE®, IMURAN®, and BACTRIM® are broken down by the liver and, if combined with alcohol, could harm the liver.
