Abstract

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 while prescribing disulfiram for patients with personal and familial antecedents of psychosis.

二硫仑引发的精神病

二硫仑是治疗酒精依赖的常用处方药。它的主要代谢产物（二乙基二硫代氨基甲酸酯）是多巴胺β羟化酶的抑制剂，该酶催化多巴胺代谢为去甲肾上腺素，导致精神病。我们建议双硫仑应以最低有效剂量使用，可能每天250 mg，并且在为有个人和家族精神病史的患者开具双硫仑处方时应谨慎。
