Overview DFM 250mg Tablet

Disulfiram 250mg tablets treat alcohol dependence. Its mechanism involves reacting with alcohol, triggering unpleasant reactions such as nausea, facial flushing, and headaches, deterring further alcohol consumption. Disulfiram 250mg can be taken with or without food, as directed by your physician. Missed doses should be taken immediately upon recall; never skip doses, and complete the prescribed course. Discontinue use only under medical supervision. While taking this medication, strictly avoid all forms of alcohol, including alcoholic beverages, products containing alcohol (e.g., aftershave, mouthwash), and alcohol-based pharmaceuticals. Common side effects include headache, tiredness, sleepiness, reduced sex drive, and a metallic taste.
