Interaction report

Beer and Celecoxib, Tramadol

These two interact in 2 distinct ways. Each one is explained separately below.

Why Are There 2 Interactions?

Beer interacts with whole categories of medication. Celecoxib, Tramadol falls into 2 of those categories, so it can interact with Beer in 2 different ways. We’ve listed each one below — your overall risk is driven by the most serious of them (Major).

Major

CNS DEPRESSANTS

1 of 2

Why this applies to Celecoxib, Tramadol

Celecoxib, Tramadol falls under CNS DEPRESSANTS — the group Beer interacts with.

Concomitant use may increase sedative and other adverse effects.
Concomitant use of alcohol with CNS depressants can increase sedative and other adverse effects, potentially through inhibition of the metabolism of certain CNS depressants.
Severity Major Likelihood Likely Evidence C

Well-controlled human studies have demonstrated the likely existence of this interaction.

Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Seglentis combines celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory) with tramadol, and it's the tramadol part that matters most here. Tramadol works on your brain and nervous system, and so does the alcohol in beer. When you put the two together, those calming effects stack up. That can leave you feeling more drowsy, dizzy, or foggy than expected, and in larger amounts it can slow your breathing, which is the part we worry about most.

There's another twist: alcohol can slow how your body clears some of these medicines, so the drug may hang around longer and hit harder. The celecoxib side also doesn't mix well with alcohol, since both can irritate your stomach and raise bleeding risk. I wouldn't pair beer with this medication. Please check with your pharmacist or doctor about what's safe for you.

NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (NSAIDs)

2 of 2

Celecoxib, Tramadol also falls under NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (NSAIDs).

Concomitant use may increase the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding.
Concomitant use of NSAIDs with alcohol can increase the risk of GI bleeding.
Severity Major Likelihood Probable Evidence C

Interaction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports..

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Seglentis is a combination pill that pairs celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory, or NSAID) with tramadol (a pain reliever). The concern here is the celecoxib half. Like other NSAIDs, it can be rough on your stomach lining, and adding beer (or any alcohol) bumps up the risk of bleeding in your stomach or gut. That's why this combination carries a major warning.

What to watch for: stomach pain, black or tarry stools, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, or feeling unusually weak or dizzy. The tramadol side also adds to alcohol's sedation, so you may feel drowsier or less steady. An occasional drink may matter less than regular or heavy use, but the safest move is to skip alcohol while on this medicine. Please check with your pharmacist or doctor.

About Beer

What is Beer?

Beer
  • Social and recreational drinking
  • Relaxation
  • Heart health (popular belief)
  • Bone health (popular belief)
  • Source of antioxidants and B vitamins

Beer is an alcoholic beverage that contains some minerals, B vitamins, and plant compounds from hops and grain, but it is not a health supplement. Any possible benefits come only from light-to-moderate intake, and they are easily outweighed by the well-known harms of alcohol. The safest amount of alcohol for health is none, and beer should be avoided in pregnancy and breastfeeding.
