Can a Person Who Was a Cocaine Addict Drink Alcohol Occasionally After 6 Months of Rehab?

Question by kat: Can a person who was a cocaine addict drink alcohol occasionally after 6 months of rehab?
My husband is getting out of a 6 month drug rehab program on Friday. I want to know if it is ok to allow him to drink alcohol or not. Alcohol was never a problem for him, cocaine was his only addiction. I do not drink very often. I will maybe have 1 or 2 drinks every couple of months. I just wanted to know if I should ban all alcohol from our home? I just need some guidance on this one. Serious, helpful answers please.

Hi look in the short term after his release I would refrain from having any alcohol in the house as due to his addiction he will probably want to use this as a crutch 6 mnths rehab is not very long these days.
Then if he gets drunk would then feel the need for cocaine from my experiences in the patients that pass thru my hospital..
He really needs support from you not condemnation to assist him,.of course he has to want too also..good luck ?
