I just want to know IF there are warning lables about the fact that alcohol will effect one's liver...?

In: Conditions and Diseases [Edit categories]

Answer:

I would not suggest it. As alcohol has little positive effect on your body in the fist place, Alcohol with medications treating UC could be a bad combination. Also, there has been research that states that alcohol would irritate your colon and cause flare ups, or relapses. Some are able to drink alcohol who have UC, but they have to take precautionary steps such as drinking two glasses of water before each drink as well as keep specific track of what they eat in order not to disturb their colon. In general, I would stay away from alcohol in this situation, it's the safest way to play the game and is a preventive way to stay healthy with UC.
