Disulfiram is an alcohol-deterrent agent that acts by irreversibly inhibiting the hepatic enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). Ingestion of alcohol during therapy causes a 5- to 10-fold accumulation of toxic acetaldehyde in the blood, precipitating an immediate, intensely unpleasant disulfiram-alcohol reaction (flushing, throbbing headache, palpitations, dyspnea, nausea, vomiting, hypotension). Indicated as an adjunct in the comprehensive management of chronic alcoholism to support enforced abstinence.
