## Resource

For PV patients, alcohol isn’t off-limits—but it’s a minefield of risks. While moderation may be okay with doctor approval, alcohol can worsen symptoms like flushing or headaches, dehydrate you (increasing clot risk), and strain your liver or stomach, especially with meds like hydroxyurea. The type doesn’t matter as much as the amount—sip slowly, hydrate, and listen to your body. If in doubt? Skip it.
