Disulfiram Induced Psychosis
Disulfiram is the commonly prescribed drug for the treatment of alcohol dependence. It's major metabolite (diethyldithiocarbamate) is an inhibitor of dopamine-betahydroxylase, an enzyme that catalyzes the metabolism of dopamine to norepinephrine resulting in psychosis. We recommend that disulfiram should be used at the lowest effective dose, possibly 250 mg daily and caution should be taken whi...
متن کاملInhibition of ifosfamide-induced urotoxicity by disulfiram in mice.
The effect of disulfiram on the urotoxicity induced by ifosfamide was studied in mice. Ifosfamide administered intraperitoneally to mice caused a dose-related increase in bladder weight within 48 hr of treatment. Disulfiram prevented ifosfamide-induced bladder damage when administered orally within 1 hr of ifosfamide treatment. The results indicate that disulfiram is an effective protective age...
متن کاملDisulfiram-induced delirium: diagnostic dilemma
Disulfiram, a useful medication to deter the relapse of alcohol dependence, has been associated with a number of neuropsychiatric adverse effects. Disulfiram induced delirium is rare in the absence of an ongoing psychosis or a disulfiramethanol reaction. We present the case of an alcohol dependent patient who had a past history of both an alcohol-induced psychotic episode (which had resolved co...
متن کاملSelective Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitor Compound 11b Improves Haloperidol-Induced Catatonia by Enhancing the Striatum Dopaminergic Neurotransmission
The aim of this research was to investigate the Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective inhibition effect on haloperidol-induced catatonia. In this study, the effect of orally, acutely and Sub-chronically administrations of compound 11b [1-(phenyl)-5-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)-2-ethylthioimidazole] (2, 4 and 8 mg/kg), a newly selective COX-2 inhibitor, was investigated against the haloperidol-induced ...
