Antabuse, or disulfiram, requires a prescription. You cannot purchase it over-the-counter.
To obtain Antabuse, schedule an appointment with your doctor. They will assess your medical history and determine if Antabuse is right for you. This involves discussing your alcohol use and any potential health risks associated with using the medication.
Your doctor will provide a prescription if they deem it appropriate. You’ll then fill the prescription at a licensed pharmacy. Be aware that generic versions are usually available, often at a lower cost.
Online pharmacies exist, but exercise caution. Verify the legitimacy of any online pharmacy before using it to ensure you receive authentic medication and protect your personal information. Always use licensed and verified sources.
The cost varies depending on your insurance coverage, the pharmacy, and the quantity prescribed. Check with your insurance provider for coverage details before filling your prescription.
Remember, Antabuse is a powerful medication with potential side effects. Openly discuss these side effects, and any other concerns, with your doctor. They can provide tailored advice and address any issues.
