Dear lybrate-user, With Antabuse, taking even a few ml of alcohol is dangerous. If you want to restart drinking, please talk to your family and doctor. If everyone agrees that you will benefit with alcohol, you need to stop taking antabuse. It takes about 9-10 days for antabuse to leave the body. Only after that you can drink safely and also enjoy. If you want to drink with antabuse, please get admitted to a hospital with ICU and drink. You will enjoy the drink. You may suffer with acetaldehyde reaction. So take a valid decision after consulting significant persons.
