How does disulfiram work for alcoholism?
Disulfiram works by creating unpleasant side effects when alcohol is consumed, thereby discouraging drinking.
It can last in your body for up to 14 days, meaning you should not drink alcohol until at least 2 weeks after your last dose.
If you or a loved one is struggling with alcohol misuse and looking for ways to stay sober. Orlando Recovery Center can help.
