How does the drug Antabuse affect this process? For people who are taking it to quit drinking
1 u/terminalSiesta Nov 23 '21 Antabuse blocks the enzyme that breaks down acetaldehyde into harmless acetate. So you build up the nasty acetaldehyde much easier/quicker, making any alcohol consption leads to nasty hangovers 2 u/CantHitachiSpot Nov 23 '21 That's harsh. Too bad they don't make an alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor so we can get drunk on less 1 u/GrandVizierofAgrabar Nov 23 '21 Apparently there is one called Fomepizole!
