Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Yes, you can take alcohol in the form of wine after bee sting after 48 to 72 hours.
However, limit the quantity of intake till the symptoms subside completely.
Consuming wine with antihistamines will increase sedation effect and hence should be avoided.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
