Disulfiram is used to help maintain sobriety in the treatment of chronic alcoholism in conjunction with supportive and psychotherapeutic measures.

Case reports suggest that disulfiram may be useful for the treatment of nickel dermatitis. However, small double-blind placebo-controlled study of patients with hand eczema and nickel allergy did not find a clinically significant difference between those treated with disulfiram and those treated with placebo. Because some patients worsen with this therapy and because patients treated for nickel dermatitis have developed disulfiram induced hepatitis, this therapy is not generally indicated.
Goldfrank, L.R. (ed). Goldfrank's Toxicologic Emergencies. 7th Edition McGraw-Hill New York, New York 2002., p. 977
The oral efficacy of several chelating drugs, incl disulfiram, was studied in relation to their ability to prevent lethality due to acute inhalation exposure to nickel carbonyl. Disulfiram resulted in very high, but transient, plasma levels. Small, repeated oral doses of disulfiram would be just as effective in nickel carbonyl poisoning as a single large dithiocarb dose. However, disulfiram increase the nickel retained in brain tissue, possibly accounting for its limited efficacy. Caution in the use of oral disulfiram in human nickel carbonyl intoxication is recommended.

... Alarming reactions may result from the ingestion of even small amt of alc in persons being treated with disulfiram. Marked resp depression, cardiovascular collapse, cardiac arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, acute congestive heart failure, unconsciousness, convulsions, and sudden and unexplained fatalities have occurred.

The ingestion of alcohol by individuals previously treated with disulfiram gives rise to marked signs and symptoms. Within about 5-10 min face feels hot, and soon afterwards it is flushed and scarlet in appearance. As vasodilatation spreads over whole body, intense throbbing is felt in head and neck, and a pulsating headache may develop. Respiratory difficulties, nausea, copious vomiting, sweating, thirst, chest pain, considerable hypotension, orthostatic syncope, marked uneasiness, weakness, vertigo, blurred vision, and confusion are observed. Facial flush is replaced by pallor, and blood pressure may fall to shock level.

Patients receiving disulfiram should be warned to avoid cough syrups, sauces, vinegars, elixirs, and other preparations that contain alcohol. External application of alcoholic liniments or lotions, including aftershave or back rub, may be sufficient to produce a disulfiram-alcohol reaction. Patients should be cautioned that disulfiram-alcohol reactions may occur for several weeks after discontinuance of disulfiram.

For the treatment and management of chronic alcoholism
Disulfiram produces a sensitivity to alcohol which results in a highly unpleasant reaction when the patient under treatment ingests even small amounts of alcohol. Disulfiram blocks the oxidation of alcohol at the acetaldehyde stage during alcohol metabolism following disulfiram intake, the concentration of acetaldehyde occurring in the blood may be 5 to 10 times higher than that found during metabolism of the same amount of alcohol alone. Accumulation of acetaldehyde in the blood produces a complex of highly unpleasant symptoms referred to hereinafter as the disulfiram-alcohol reaction. This reaction, which is proportional to the dosage of both disulfiram and alcohol, will persist as long as alcohol is being metabolized. Disulfiram does not appear to influence the rate of alcohol elimination from the body. Prolonged administration of disulfiram does not produce tolerance; the longer a patient remains on therapy, the more exquisitely sensitive he becomes to alcohol.
Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase Inhibitors
Compounds that bind to and inhibit the enzymatic activity of acetaldehyde dehydrogenases. (See all compounds classified as Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase Inhibitors.)
Alcohol Deterrents
Substances interfering with the metabolism of ethyl alcohol, causing unpleasant side effects thought to discourage the drinking of alcoholic beverages. Alcohol deterrents are used in the treatment of alcoholism. (See all compounds classified as Alcohol Deterrents.)

Absorption
Disulfiram is absorbed slowly from the gastrointestinal tract (80 to 90% of oral dose).
Absorption /of disulfiram is/ slow. Eighty to ninety percent of an oral dose is absorbed. /Its/ biotransformation /is predominately/ hepatic /and/ a single dose will begin to affect ethanol metabolism within 1 to 2 hours.

Disulfiram is ... completely absorbed from the human GI tract. However, a period of 12 hr is required for its full action, perhaps because, being highly sol in lipid, it is initially localized in fat. Elimination is relatively slow, and about 1/5 still remains in body at end of a week. The greater part of the absorbed drug is ... excreted in the urine as the sulfate, partly free and partly esterified.
Clayton, G. D. and F. E. Clayton (eds.). Patty's Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology: Volume 2A, 2B, 2C: Toxicology. 3rd ed. New York: John Wiley Sons, 1981-1982., p. 388
After a single oral dose of 50, 100, 200, or 400 mg/kg, disulfiram was found in dose-dependent quantities in blood, liver, kidney, spleen, brain, muscle, and peri-epididymal adipose tissue of rats. After a 2-mo treatment, accumulation was not dose-dependent, suggesting a saturation point for various organs.

The human plasma protein binding characteristics of disulfiram and its therapeutically active metabolite, diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester were investigated. Both compounds were bound principally to albumin over the ranges 200-800 and 345-2756 nM, respectively. The average number of binding sites was approximately one for both substances, whereas the average association constants were 7.1X10+4 and 6.1X10+3/M, respectively.

Disulfiram is slowly metabolized in the liver to diethyldithiocarbamate, diethylamine, and carbon disulfide. Six hr after oral administration of the drug, one third of plasma disulfiram is in the form of diethyldithiocarbamate.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service- Drug Information 2005. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 2005 (Plus Supplements)., p. 3559
In rats the following metabolites of disulfiram were found: diethyldithiocarbamate; diethyldithiocarbamate s-glucuronide; inorganic sulfate; diethylamine and carbon disulfide. A small amount of S was bound to proteins as mixed disulfides. ... Metabolism of disulfiram in man is similar to that in animals.

Diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester, in contrast to other disulfiram metabolites, is a potent inhibitor of liver aldehyde dehydrogenase in vitro. Like disulfiram, diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester had a pronounced hypothermic effect in rats. This hypothermic effect and the augmented blood pressure response to ethanol challenge in rats developed rapidly with diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester but were somewhat delayed with disulfiram. The blood pressure response outlasted the presence of diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester in plasma (less than 24 hr); a significant effect was found 48 hr after pretreatment but not 72 hr after a single dose. No effect was observed when ethanol was given 15 min before diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester or disulfiram. These latter two observations are consistent with a function of diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester as a suicide inhibitor of aldehyde dehydrogenase. Since diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester has been reported to inhibit aldehyde dehydrogenase in vitro, even under anaerobic conditions, diethylthiocarbamic acid methyl ester may be the active metabolite of disulfiram.

Following a 250 mg dose, the half-lives of disulfiram, diethyldithiocarbamate and carbon disulfide are 7.3 +/-1.5 hours, 15.5 +/-4.5 hours, and 8.9 +/-1.4 hours, respectively.

Disulfiram blocks the oxidation of alcohol at the acetaldehyde stage during alcohol metabolism following disulfiram intake causing an accumulation of acetaldehyde in the blood producing highly unpleasant symptoms. Disulfiram blocks the oxidation of alcohol through its irreversible inactivation of aldehyde dehydrogenase, which acts in the second step of ethanol utilization. In addition, disulfiram competitively binds and inhibits the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor, which may indicate some value in the treatment of the symptoms of alcohol withdrawal, however this activity has not been extensively studied.
Acetaldehyde, produced as a result of oxidation of ethanol by alcohol dehydrogenase, ordinarily does not accumulate in the body, because it is further oxidized almost as soon as it is formed, primarily by aldehyde dehydrogenase. Following the administration of disulfiram, both cytosolic and mitochondrial forms of this enzyme are irreversibly inactivated to varying degrees, and the concentration of acetaldehyde rises. It is unlikely that disulfiram itself is responsible for the enzyme inactivation in vivo; several active metabolites of the drug, especially diethylthiomethylcarbamate, behave as suicide-substrate inhibitors of aldehyde dehydrogenase in vitro. These metabolites reach significant concentrations in plasma following the administration of disulfiram.

Disulfiram (700 mg/kg, orally) increase brain levels of serotonin (i) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-hiaa) in rats. Ethanol (1 g/kg and 2x1.5 g/kg, ip) did not affect the serotonin level, but at the higher dose it increase the 5-hiaa level. When disulfiram was given in combination with ethanol, the brain level of serotonin was higher and the 5-hiaa level was lower, compared to the results with disulfiram alone. Thus, the biogenic aldehyde derived from serotonin may influence serotonin metab and the elimination of 5-hiaa from the brain.

When disulfiram was given orally to rats at 40-400 mg/kg, the serum and, to a lesser extent, the liver cholesterol concentrations were increased and the liver microsome cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase activity decreased. The 7alpha-hydroxylase inhibition was completely reversed by dithiothreitol, indicating that disulfiram acted through its disulfide on 7alpha-hydroxylase. Increased serum cholesterol of alcoholics treated with disulfiram may be related to the inhibition of 7alpha-hydroxylase.

Human aldehyde dehydrogenase consists of two main isozymes with low and high Km for acetaldehyde. Studies regarding the inhibitory reaction of disulfiram and its metabolites were performed. Among the metabolites, diethylamine inhibited the low Km enzyme strongly. Vasomotor symptoms and high acetaldehyde concn in blood after ethanol intake in patients who are treated with disulfiram might be mainly due to a decrease in activity of the low Km enzyme caused by diethylamine which is produced in vivo as one of the metabolites from disulfiram, rather than to an inhibitory reaction of disulfiram only. Thus, alcohol sensitivity in Mongoloids and the disulfiram-ethanol reaction may have a common mechanism.
