Hello,
It is ideal not to take alochol at all as it may cause multiple health issues.
And generally we ask people not to mix any medications with alcohol.
These are just vitamin and calcium tablets should not cause any drug intreactions ,but you never know for sure as one persons body system is different than the others. So instead of skipping tablets to have a drink, I think you should skip alcohol to take your tablets.

We call it increasing sensitivity to alcohol -an allergy. First an alcoholic smitten by an insane urge that condemned him or her to go on drinking, and than by an allergy of the body that insured that they will ultimately destroy themselves in the process.
