Just a quick question I hope you guys can answer, if I had dosed 450mg codeine (which is my normal dose) at about 12:00 along with 50mg diphenhydramine and 40mg baclofen about half an hour later would it be safe for me to go drinking alcohol at 22:00? (no other substances have been consumed since atleast 12:45)
 
I would go slowly with the drinking in case you get drunk easier than usual. I know it's been 9-10 hrs since you took the drugs, but better safe than sorry, you don't want to end up hugging the porcelain or blacking out. These are all CNS depressants and the doses you took are nothing to sneeze at (do you have a tolerance to the baclofen and the diphenhydramine?) so I think it's wise to be cautious, even if drinking a sane amount isn't likely to kill you.
 
Thanks for the replies, I just took it slowly with the drink like you said, and everything went swimmingly, yeah I have a high tolerance to all said drugs and only get minimal effects from them those doses at this stage, I'm just not used to binge drinking on the same day as I take downers in reasonably large doses and wanted to make sure it was reasonably safe, anyway I had a good night I didn't feel any significant diference when drinking so all went well, better to be safe than sorry!
