its harder to know how much alcohol or drugs youre taking.
it can make you become addicted to both alcohol and drugs.

Explanation:

Alcohol can interact with medications in the body. It can increase the body's tolerance to drugs, meaning the normal dose of the prescription may not be as effective or could lead to more severe side - effects as the body has adapted to a higher level of substances due to alcohol. Allergic reactions are not the main concern related to mixing them. Knowing the quantity is not the main danger. Addiction is not the most immediate or common danger compared to tolerance increase.

Answer:

Alcohol can increase your body's tolerance to drugs.
