Antabuse
I have been using Antabuse for 4 months and yesterday I unknowingly used hand soap with alcohol and was very sick. Vomitted, stomach cramps and heart palipitations. Very scary so beware of hand soap Antabuse users.

How much are you taking each day? I was on 250mg a day and surprisingly I had no problems what so ever with products but I heard it affects everyone differently so some people are much more sensitive than others. Face products too and even shampoo you have to be careful with.

Doesn't stop cravings but makes you violently ill if you drink. Kind of like adversion through punishment I liked it as a way to stabilize me for a few months. I didn't mind being scared for my life. Long term though, working a program and changing my life works better.
Net result: if you put alcohol in your body, you get violently ill.
I used it for first week but its not recommended in case you detox hard can create complications. You may want to chat with your Dr. And should be under some treatment by a psychiatrist or psychologist during this time too.
