I've had an angioplasty with a drug-eluting stent placed back in March, and I'm currently on medication. I'm really wondering if it's okay for me to have alcohol socially. I used to enjoy whiskey about twice a week before all of this. Can you give me some advice on whether that's still safe?

After angioplasty with a drug-eluting stent, moderate social alcohol consumption is generally allowed, but consult your cardiologist first; if permitted, limit whiskey consumption to 1-2 units (30-60ml) per occasion, 1-2 times a week, and prioritize medications, healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management for optimal heart health.
