Antabuse (disulfiram) is a prescription medication used to treat chronic alcoholism by creating an intense sensitivity to alcohol. When taken daily, Antabuse interferes with the body’s ability to break down alcohol, causing unpleasant reactions such as flushing, nausea, and rapid heartbeat if alcohol is consumed. This powerful deterrent effect helps reinforce abstinence during addiction recovery programs.

Antabuse is not a cure for alcohol dependence but is effective when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan including therapy, support groups, and counseling. It is typically prescribed after a patient has detoxed and is committed to staying alcohol-free.
