Brief Answer:
It may be best to avoid drinking alcohol when taking these medicines

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns.
While taking Spironolactone, consumption of alcohol, narcotics, or barbiturates (a sedative) can cause dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting when you get up too quickly from a sitting or lying position. Therefore, it may be best to avoid drinking alcohol when taking spironolactone.

Krimson Tablet contains Cyproterone, and Ethinylestradiol as active ingredients. Alcohol may alter the levels of ethinylestradiol but that will not call for dose adjustment.
