I'm a bit concerned about drinking alcohol while I'm taking Montek LC. My doctor prescribed it to me, and I'm not sure if there might be any side effects or interactions. Can you tell me if it's safe or if I should avoid drinking?

ideally there is no such interaction between them but as both will cause sedation,better not to consume alchohol when you are sick.

I had earwax removed and now I'm hearing sounds in my ear. One doctor mentioned there's a hole in my middle ear and suggested surgery, while another advised waiting 3 months to see if it heals naturally and recommended daily steam. Can a hole in the ear heal on its own, and what are the chances of natural recovery?

for P/E ENT specialist opinion is advised to the patient.
