Can you drink alcohol while taking Ceftaroline Injection?
Last updated September 7, 2026.
**Ceftaroline injection has no listed alcohol interaction, but it is best to avoid drinking while you feel unwell.** The absence of a listed interaction does not guarantee that drinking is safe for you. Alcohol can worsen nausea or dizziness during antibiotic treatment. Your other medicines and health conditions can change the advice, so ask your pharmacist or prescribing clinician before drinking. Keep your infusions on schedule and choose nonalcoholic drinks while you recover.
What to do
- **Choose nonalcoholic drinks:** Avoid alcohol while you feel unwell or have nausea or dizziness.
- **Check your medicines:** Ask your pharmacist whether any other medicine you take requires avoiding alcohol.
- **Keep your schedule:** Do not skip or delay an infusion so you can drink.
- **Share your drinking habits:** Tell your prescribing clinician how much and how often you drink for advice specific to you.
- **Report bowel symptoms:** Contact your clinician promptly if you develop watery or bloody diarrhea during or after treatment.
