I have had chronic constipation for years, and nothing helps, including fiber, water, and laxatives. The only relief I get is when I take Vyvanse, which causes liquid stools and hemorrhoids. I also experience dull pain on my left and right lower sides, bloating, and gas that is sometimes hard to pass. Additionally, my stools are often thin.

I was prescribed Oxycodone 5mg a week ago after having an appendectomy. I took my last dose yesterday morning, so it has been 24 hours. When may it be safe for me to drink alcohol again without risking an accidental overdose?
