- There is limited scientific evidence to support the claim that probiotics can help with the absorption of medication after drinking alcohol. However, one study found that taking probiotics before drinking alcohol may reduce the amount of alcohol absorbed into the bloodstream. In this study, participants who took probiotics before drinking had significantly lower blood alcohol concentrations than those who did not take probiotics. Additionally, a review of studies found that taking probiotics may reduce the risk of developing alcoholic liver disease. While more research is needed to confirm these findings, it appears that probiotics may have some potential benefits for people who drink alcohol.
