As much as possible, please don’t consume alcohol. Alcohol may increase the BP, may cause rhythm disturbances of the heart and may cause gastritis which may be confused with heart pain.

Next Steps

If you have to take, beer is better because of low alcohol percentage.

Hello, Alcohol is not recommended specially after you already had a heart disease. Alcohol can raise your BP and cause rhythm disturbances if exceeded a particular quantity. I can not recommend alcohol but if you want to take it , the type of alcohol hardly matters. Do not exceed 2 small pegs of whisky or 650 ml of beer at a time. Take care. Stay safe.
