7 Unusual Information About Antabuse

Drinking alcohol when taking Antabuse will make you feel severely ill. The FDA approved it in 1951 for use in the US, and since then it has had a consistent role in alcohol treatment. Acetic acid is harmless, but acetaldehyde is toxic to your body, and plays a role in hangover symptoms. This results in severe, hangover or allergy-like symptoms-including nausea, vertigo, facial flushing, sweating, elevated heart rate, and palpitations. METFORMIN had a heart attack a year or two on diabetes, Jim.

They should be taken two or three times each day with meals, or immediately after meals. If you drink after taking disulfiram, you can end up with five to ten times more acetaldehyde in your body than otherwise.

I keep thinking this is a fluke, a pill cannot make that much of a difference.

Sure, the major difference between a brand-name product and generics is neither chemistry nor quality, but whether the drug is still under patent protection by the company that initially developed it. It is an admittedly harsh way of getting yourself to quit alcohol, but evidence suggests it can still be an effective option for some people.

Contraindicated in patients intoxicated by alcohol and within 12 hours of alcohol ingestion; in those with psychoses, myocardial disease, coronary occlusion, or hypersensitivity to disulfiram or to other thiuram derivatives used in pesticides and rubber vulcanization; and in patients receiving metronidazole, paraldehyde, alcohol, or alcohol-containing preparations.

Explain that, although disulfiram can help discourage use of alcohol, it isn’t a cure for alcoholism. Before that, it was mainly used in rubber factories, and under investigation as a cure for scabies and intestinal parasites. Ironically, considering its rubber factory origins, people with rubber allergies may also have a bad reaction to disulfiram. This confirmed earlier reports from the 1930s, that some rubber factory employees working with the chemical were becoming ill after drinking.

One of the main drawbacks is the lack of a physical deterrent to drinking. I had ten years of wonderful sobriety at one point. One doctor in Denmark decided to test disulfiram on himself, and realized that it made him sick when he drank alcohol. After the war, and more research, disulfiram was introduced as a medication for alcohol addiction, under the name Antabuse (anti-abuse)-the first of its kind.

Do not use more than the recommended dose of dextromethorphan, and avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you.

Do not use more than the recommended dose of phenindamine, and avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you. Use drug only in patients who are cooperative and well motivated, and who are receiving supportive psychiatric therapy.
