*There are many different views regarding whether or not you can drink, and how much, whilst you are receiving chemotherapy. Some drugs though, must be taken on a strictly no alcohol basis. Your doctor will let you know when it is safe to drink again. Where drinking alcohol is allowed, moderation as always, is the key. Unfortunately, that means self-control for a while for the party animals amongst you!

"I wasn’t allowed to drink any alcohol while I was taking my chemotherapy drugs. It made parties a little boring but I spent so much time feeling ill that I didn’t want to risk a hangover anyway"
