Antabuse, or disulfiram, is a medication used to support the treatment of chronic alcoholism by producing an acute sensitivity to ethanol. When someone taking Antabuse consumes alcohol, it causes unpleasant reactions such as flushing, nausea, and palpitations, which deter further drinking. This aversive therapy aims to encourage abstinence by associating alcohol consumption with negative effects.
