Why do they use Antabuse instead of a regular pill that makes you nauseaus? Its dangerous to drink and take antabuse together, so Why can't they just give a regualar pill that gives you upset stomach, diarrhea....ect? that is less dangerous

ckm1956 replied: "Antabuse only causes problems in the presence of alcohol. So, the person can eat & drink anything else. Another med to cause nausea would keep the person from eating anything."

antabuse?????????????????????????????????? if u drnk on antabuse how can u reduce the redness of your face and how long does that last??

Cyrberus replied: "The redness will pass long after the projectile vomiting and fever have passed. Best to do when you know for sure the EMTs are nearby."

Niamh R replied: "If you drink on antabuse you will puke! It's as simple as that."

dogglebe replied: "You won't even finish your first drink if you're on antabuse. That stuff is so sensitive and so strong, it'll react to a single dose of Nyquil. Even a muscle rub with alcohol will react to it."

joex444 replied: "If you drink on antabuse you'll run into trouble. It's designed to build up acetalehyde in your body, which is more toxic than ethanol. This is why you get so sick while drinking on antabuse. It also causes the redness of your face. It will last much longer than it would if you were not on antabuse. There's a reason you're taking antabuse. Is it really worth drinking, it won't be enjoyable?"

mo m replied: "yeah, just don't do it......... take the advice!!!!"

How long does Antabuse stay in your system? I haven't taken it in 2 days, and I just drank a couple sips of wine....When will the Antabuse be completely out of my system? thanx "werd", but that isn't the question I asked.

werd replied: "oooooh, i remember that stuff from when i quit drinking the first time...if your on that stuff im assuming you have an alcohol problem... you really should not be drinking...are you in an AA group? seeing a councellor? seriously, if your problem is bad enough that they put you on that stuff, you most likely should not be drinking AT ALL... seek help."

littlep replied: "antabuse takes up to 14 days to completely leave your system."

How do I buy antabuse in Buenos Aires? I don't speak Spanish and would like to purchase the antabuse before April 20th when I go home to Canada where it isn't available.

spacekowboy1965 replied: "They dont speak spanish either that Portuguese they are speaking surely you can find someone who understands some english go to Motels ask around all else fails ask a Taxi driver them dudes always know where the good dope is"

Isabel replied: "They speak Spanish, of course! Portuguese is spoken in Brazil. I don't know what "antabuse" is; I gather it's some kind of drug or medicine. If it is legal, you will surely find an English speaking doctor that will prescribe it for you."

euge replied: "well, I don't know what antabuse is but if you mail me explainig me what is it I'll tell you how to get it(if posible)."

how long after drinking alcohol must I wait to start Antabuse? I have talked w/ my dr in regards to starting a program based on antabuse to stop drinking. I have failed to ask him how long alcohol must be out of my system prior to starting. I read online it could be 12 hrs or a couple of days. Anyone know? Thanks for your time. beer drinker only. never drunk, just realize the 9-11 beers a day is not good for my health, so if sober comments just wanted to clarify each morning I feel fine.

Fabulous xox replied: "24 hours if you drink loads of water."

Hilary replied: "I'd just be honest and upfront with my doctor to get the for sure right answer. Can't fix a problem if you can't be fully honest with yourself and the person/people trying to help you. I wish you the best of luck!"

HALEY WANTS iT.<3 replied: "um until your fully sober. drink water to flush it out of your system. and just wait 24 hours."

Antabuse, can I eat chocolate chip cookies with vanilla extract in them? I just started taking Antabuse to stop drinking and my aunt made me some cookies that have vanilla extract in them? I am dying to have one but do not want to suffer the consequences.

TX2step replied: "Usually any alcohol content will have burned out during baking; and there's so little vanilla in the whole batch of cookies, it shouldn't bother you. But, you can call your pharmacist and ask......."

snakegrrl replied: "I believe you can. At least in baked goods. Just don't have it in something that isn't cooked. Like don't put vanilla extract in your coffee, don't put it in your whipped cream if you're making the stuff from scratch. Usually vanilla extract leaves only the flavoring behind when the whatever is baked. Alcohol has a low boiling point, so it cooks out of things quickly. That's why they don't check your ID before you order bread pudding with bourbon sauce for dessert! There's a lot of bourbon in that but all the alcohol cooks off so it's safe even for kids and pregnant women. But check with your doc. I may be wrong on this. Good luck quitting the drinking! I've heard it's really tough to quit, but have no experience in it or else I'd give more advice....haven't been brave enough to try alcohol outside of cooking yet."

Poyzin replied: "good question. I heard even mouthwash (which you don't swallow) can cause a bad reaction. Although the temperature and chemical reactions resulting from baking the extract probably renders it harmless, i wouldn't take a chance. But.. it might also not hurt to do some math. If she used 1 teaspoon and it's 15% alcohol, you have only 15% of a teaspoon of alcohol in the entire batch of cookies. If a batch of cookies is 20 cookies, it means you only have 0.75% of a teaspon of alcohol per cookie. That's WAY less than a drop. Plus, assume that 50% of it evaporates from the baking process, you have WAY less than half a drop of alcohol per cookie."

How can I speed up the elimination of Antabuse from the body? I have been taking the drug for 9 months.Will diet and excercise and Detox Tea help to in the process?

Sarge1572 replied: "All of that and a couple o beers!!"

lizardman replied: "first off why are you on it? is going back to alchohol a good idea? if so drink lots of cranberry juice this helps flush your system of most evrything. throughout the day drink lots of water. this will only help some but will shorten the half life of the drug in you. you only have 4-7 days before you can start drinking alcohol again."

Aaron S replied: "Unfortunately there is really no way to eliminate is any faster than your body will naturally. Diet and exercise will help your body do this, so will drinking plenty of fluids.. Antabuse is one of those sticky drugs in that even if there are trace amounts in your system alcohol can react with it. Remember not to consume any alcohol for at least 2 week after stopping."

ravin_lunatic replied: "Why do you need to do that? BTW..Isn't that stuff a trip? Here you have an alcoholic, that some toopid Dr. gives antabuse to with the PROMISE that YOU WILL BE SOOOOO SICK IF YOU DRINK WHEN USING IT..LOL ? HAHA! It's like telling a kid not to touch something you just painted. YOU WILL TEST ANTABUSE EVEN THOUGH IT MAKES YOU SICK! And it really doesn't. So, anyway, my brain took a left turn w/o signalling, AGAIN! Try using Milk Thistle everyday, for the rest of your life. Check it out."

judge5519 replied: "Went I went off Antabuse and never drank for three weeks and caught a cold the Dr order some cough medicine and they rush me into the ER by ambulance so it come out of your system slowly. The Dr thought it would be out of me by then too guess he was wrong LOL"

nochocolate replied: "Vitamin C will help, but would you want to risk the disulfiram-alcohol reaction by thinking that the drug is out of your system when it might not be? Ascorbic acid (may interfere with the disulfiram-alcohol reaction, especially with chronic use or high doses of ascorbic acid; although controversial, this effect has been used beneficially by some clinicians in the management of disulfiram-alcohol reactions)"

Puss in Boots replied: "Yes. Eating regularly, drinking plenty of water and excercise is the only way. Swimming is another option because you use every muscle in your body when you swim."

How do they administer court ordered antabuse? My father in law got a dwi and may have to take it. He said that they have no way of making sure you take it. I disagree.

dysentery_boy replied: "Yeah, he'll take it or go back to jail. He will have to go to a certified drug testing facility (every day), sign in with an ID and they will watch him take it and then sit around for 20 minutes so he can't throw it back up. They aren't gonna mess around with letting him not show up, let him go early or not take it because they (testing facility personnel) are representatives of the court."
