Can i drink at all while taking citalopram for my anxiety/depression and cetrizine for my hayfever?

Can i drink at all while taking citalopram for my anxiety/depression and cetrizine for my hayfever?

alcohol is contraindicated in case of both SSRI group of drugs ( Like Citalopram ) or antihistamine like Cetrizine as it may modify its effect, but I suggest a drink or so occasionally should not cause too much of a problem.

Alcohol is a known depressant.
That said no one who is depressed or on ANY meds for depression should drink alcohol. The effects could be devastating..
