Hello there. I can understand your concern. What ever the cause of the jaundice, high bilirubin has some role or the other with the liver. So it's advised to not drink alcohol just after recovering. It's always better to wait. Consult a general physician in person for further evaluation and treatment. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore
