Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if alcohol is able the affect the body's ability to eliminate two commonly used medication, oseltamivir and aspirin. We hypothesize that drinking alcohol may reduce the body's ability to break down these two medications along with many others.This could affect the amount of drug in the blood which could impact how well these drugs work and whether patients have side effects.
