Brief Answer:
Don't drink alcohol.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Better not to take alcohol at present as it can cause reaction.
Betnesol is oral steroid and it should be avoided as first line drug for allergy.
Instead of betnesol, you should take combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast) drug.
