It's been only canned beer (Bud Light). Should have mentioned the dosage of Nardil the doc has given me is 15MG in the morning. He knows I've been drinking for so long. Does this low dose as a starting point make it even safer? He does say that as time goes by and if things go well he'll increase it gradually up to 45 or even 60MG. Once Nardil becomes effective, I have no intention of drinking at all ever again. I can say that, but the proof will have to wait.

Thanks for your reply.
