Metronidazole vs alcohol Drug Interaction | Disulfiram Like reaction

Explore our entire animation video library at: https://www.nonstopneuron.com/ Video Summary: Disulfiram is an inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase. It prevents conversion of acetaldehyde into acetic acid. The accumulation of acetaldehyde produces symptoms like headache, dizziness, facial flushing, abdominal distress and vomiting. Other drugs like metronidazole, sulfonylureas, cotrimoxazole and procarbazine also cause similar reaction possibly due to accumulation of acetaldehyde. Its called disulfiram like reaction. ● Random videos on Drug interactions/combinations: • Clopidogrel vs Omeprazole Interaction:    • Clopidogrel vs Omeprazole | Drug Interaction   • Penicillin and Probenecid Combination:    • Penicillin and Probenecid Combination   • Digoxin vs Diuretics Interaction:    • Digoxin vs diuretics interaction   • Penicillin and Beta Lactamase Inhibitors Combination:    • Penicillin with Beta lactamase inhibitors   • Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprim = Cotrimoxazole:    • Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprim = Cotrimox...   • Levodopa vs Metoclopramide Interaction:    • Levodopa vs metoclopramide interaction   • Sulfadoxine Pyrimethamine Combination:    • Sulfadoxine pyrimethamine Combination for ...   • Levodopa + Carbidopa Combination:    • Levodopa + Carbidopa Combination for Parki...   ● Follow me at: • Facebook:   / nonstopneuron   • Instagram:   / nonstopneuron   DISCLAIMER: This video is for education purpose only.
