I am titrating back up on wellbutrin and someone reminded me of one reason I stopped taking it some time ago - it amplifies hangovers. It's not antabuse, but a deterrent nonetheless. Many years ago, I got the nasty GI bug giardia and it was treated with flagyl. I found out the hard way that flagyl is chemically very similar to antabuse. The doctor did say something about alcohol, but I ignored it because "they always say that". That was no fun. I would run into the bathroom needing to sit on the toilet but also lean over it. Needless to say, I abstained from that point until several days after the last dose.
Still hanging tough...
