What if a 78 year frail manly take his anti-depressants and his arthritis medication beside beer and whiskey?

It may not kill him, but it's not a angelic idea.
The antidepressants are a CNS depressant already. The alcohol further depresses the CNS, which could create death, even if unintentional.
Also, the arthritis medicine commonly causes stomach irritation. The alcohol could further irritate his stomach inside layer, causing a bleeding carbuncle.
Well Mary, it's risky, but some 78 year old men can catch away with it. Many are justly tough to have made it to that age as drinkers. My experience as a physician is to suggest they not do this (for the correct reason noted in the answer above), but you cannot force compliance.
It also depends how much beer and whiskey he is taking beside his meds.
medicine and condition guarantee correctness , is for informational purposes only counsel or treatment for any medical conditions.
