A medication used as a deterrent in the treatment of alcoholism by causing an extremely unpleasant reaction (flushing, nausea, vomiting, palpitations, and hypotension) when alcohol is consumed while taking it. It works by inhibiting aldehyde dehydrogenase, causing accumulation of toxic acetaldehyde when alcohol is metabolized. It requires patient motivation and should only be used in fully abstinent patients who understand the consequences of drinking.
