I'm pretty sure penicillan doesn't. However, it is not smart to drink on any medication at all, even pain killers. Granted, it isn't too bad for the majority of meds. If the alcohol and the prescription had a multiplicative effect (can't remember the name of this) it would tell you on the bottle and specifically say not to consume any alcohol while taking the drug.
