Yes, a glass of wine is fine. There are no direct contraindications which means the alcohol won't affect the medication (and vice versa), but if one is a heavy drinker, they should see the doctor because the medication will produce unexpected side-effects if any damage to the liver is caused, such as heavy drinking.
