A member asked:

Can i use make-up that has alcohol as an ingredient iif i taking antabuse (disulfiram)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Should be ok: The tiny amounts of alcohol that could be absorbed topically through the skin from makeup should not be enough to cause any problems with your antabuse (disulfiram). There are alcohol free makeups and skin care products if you are concerned, and these are probably better for your skin anyway.
