Disulfiram (a substance contained in alcohol labels) is a medication used to treat alcoholism. It works by blocking the enzyme responsible for alcohol metabolism, which leads to unpleasant symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, headaches, increased heart rate, and more when a person takes alcohol.

The use of disulfiram with metformin should be discussed with your doctor. Although there are no direct pharmacokinetic interactions between these drugs, there is still a risk of side effects or unpredictable reactions, especially if a person has additional health conditions or uses other medications.
