| Description:- | Disulfiram 250mg tablet is used in the treatment of alcohol dependence (alcoholism). This belongs to a family of medicines called aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitors. When alcohol is consumed, it is converted into a chemical called aldehyde by natural breakdown process, this chemical is further broken down by the chemical (enzyme) aldehyde dehydrogenase thereby allowing alcohol to be excreted. Disulfiram 250mg tablet stops this enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase causing an increase in the blood levels of aldehydes. As a result, the person on alcohol gets very unpleasant reactions (also known as aldehyde syndrome) such as flushing, burning sensation, throbbing headache, perspiration, uneasiness, tightness in chest, dizziness, vomiting, visual disturbances, mental confusion, postural fainting and circulatory collapse which last for nearly 1-4 hours (depending upon the quantity of alcohol intake). Sensitivity to alcohol is developed which lasts for a long period of time, as a result the person experiences unpleasant reactions upon consuming alcohol even days after stopping Disulfiram 250mg tablet. |
