One presumes that you mean apart from sobriety?

Any good multivitamin will do about as much as can be expected. The problem is that consumption of alcohol affects the way the body absorbs nutrients, so supplements seldom do much good -- if the person remembers to take them. Most vitamins and minerals are gotten from food, and in order to be absorbed properly supplements should be taken with meals -- another problem with chronic drinkers.

Does any good come from consuming alcohol?

Not if you are a heavy drinker, but studies have shown that moderate drinkers live longer than both people who don't drink at all and heavy drinkers. Moderate drinking can also lower a person's risk of coronary heart disease, heart attack, and other heart related issues. Drinkers can sometimes even have a much lower chance of getting Alzheimer's disease later in life. This information and more can be found on: potsdam.edu/hansondj/AlcoholAndHealth.html

Will taking a potassium supplement help leg cramps?

The supplement will help and also eating foods like bananas that have potassium in them. Potatoes are also a good source of potassium. Vitamin E supplement would help your leg cramps 400 units of natural d-Alpha Tocopheryl everyday. Also Magnesium Citrate right before bed. Try to avoid alcohol beverages, as this aggravates leg cramps. If you have severe cramping avoid all alcohol especially beer which brings on cramping in some people.

Can you drink alcohol with a spleen contusion?

Alcohol in and by itself cant. However check out some secondary causes of alcohol abuse, IF you are a persistent heavy drinker(binge drinking especially), you are at risk of developing calicifications in your pancreas. This reduces the proper function of your pancreas over time and can produces what are called pseudocysts. This can be the culprit that will cause you to possibly bleed to death because depending on where the pseudocyst is, it can burst your spleen. I say this because it is exactly what happened to me. I was lucky I was sober at the time it burst at 1:30 in the morning , that way I could feel the emense pain of the rupture and feel the incredible instant nausea and blood vomiting, that I did not aspirate into my lungs.
