I understand that Fampyra is a medication used to improve walking in people with certain nerve conditions. Given that alcohol can affect the body's ability to process medications and may cause adverse reactions, I have to ask, "Can you safely consume alcohol while taking Fampyra, or could it potentially interact with the medication in a harmful way?" Is it recommended to avoid alcohol entirely while undergoing treatment with Fampyra, or are there any specific guidelines or considerations that patients should be aware of?
