I would like to know if is it ok to drink alcohol? What do you recommend?

Hi Margarita,

I am sorry to hear about you stroke, but it’s great that you’re recovering well!

Everyone is different so it’s important to speak with your doctor to determine if you are able to drink alcohol after your stroke.

Our alcohol after stroke fact sheet has everything you need to know, including the safe drinking recommendations and the contribution of alcohol to a number of stroke risk factors.

There is a great blog post for those who are thinking about drinking after a stroke here:
