What happens if you drink 250mg of disulfiram if you are already drunk? will it cause the same reactions? assume you drank 3 beers already and you drink the disulfiram with the 4th beer, what would be the possible reactions or there wont be any?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some people develop severe symptoms such as these: Convulsions Fainting Heart palpitations People can die due to these reactions. They’re strongest in people taking high doses of disulfiram and drinking a lot, but they’re a risk for anyone drinking while on Antabuse.
