I'm going to tell you what I hold told countless other people on Yahoo! Answers today...

Vicodin is an analgesic, it is antibiotics you cannot take alcohol with, you are fine to drink alcohol at anytime. However please drink within moderation.

First of adjectives, you are correct in assuming there needs to be a hiatus in time between the two. Alcohol and hydrocodone, the narcotic in Vicodin, are both central anxious system depressants. The combination of the two results in additive CNS depressant effects (respiratory depression, psychomotor impairment). The combination of the two can also result in increased liver toxicity (your liver processes both as it is; the combination of the two simply makes it more difficult).

Realistically, give your body time to work through the hydrocodone and acetaminophen first; I'd say at least possible 4-6 hrs., but ideally just avoiding alcohol for the day is the best bet.

Just don't plan on going anywhere afterwards!
You may end up worse stale!
