In reply to Antabuse to begin ADD treatment, posted by niss on May 17, 2001, at 20:38:14
niss,
I was given Antabuse as a condition of entering an alcohol recovery program many years ago. The explanation that was given to me about the drug back then was that it in effect turns consumed alcohol into some form of formaldyhide (sp?) and causes you to get very sick when you drink. I of course had to test it out to see if it worked. I've never been so sick in my life.
I've never heard of it being used for the treatment of ADD (or any other treatment for that fact), but if you are able to obtain any info about this, I'd be very interested in hearing about it.
Be well,
