Angie,

You may want to talk to your husband's doctor or healthcare proffesional if this is one of the side effects he may be experiencing or that you might be concerned with, there are a number of other medications that can be prescribed may be considered as an alternate for Antabuse, although they don't have identical effectiveness, they also don't have identical side effects.

Randy, if you're bored and need to engage in a debate, I'm always up for one, if not phisyology, may I suggest theology?

I'm not expecting anyone to "pipe up" and say its something they live with! ha ha Not a joking matter but i'm bored!

Everyone metabolizes medication differently.

Ah u lucky gigolo there!I've had a few males tell me it happened to them..its listed as a side effect!

For what it's worth, I have been taking Antabuse for several months and have suffered no side effects in that regard.

A side effect of Antabuse is inability to get or sustain an erection....so yes,temporary impotence can occur!
