Confusing.: The whole idea of taking Antabuse (disulfiram) is to stop drinking; so why would you want to drink after taking it? But to answer your question, Antabuse (disulfiram) has a 12-hour half-life, meaning that it takes your body 12 hours to clear out half of it -- so i wouldn't attempt to drink any alcohol (even cough medicine) for 3 days, minimum.

Disulfiram: If someone ingests alcohol prior to at least 7 days off of disulfiram it could cause a “aldehyde reaction”. There may still be some disulfiram in the system for 14 days.
