I decided not to take it. I started taking it with Campral and I got severe issues. I had crazy dizziness, blood pressure spikes, sweating, and more. It sent me to the ER, where I had to have a bunch of tests done and had to stay in the hospital for a couple days. This was not withdrawal according to the doctors.

Not to mention, while your taking Antabuse, you can't even use lotion with alcohol in it. You have to test a very small amount on your skin first. Scary.

Campral worked well though, but it doesn't work during the habitual times. (like 5:00 on my way home, I still crave alcohol) But it worked very well during the day. I didn't really think about booze.
