While at a party, a 22-year-old female taking a certain medication develops facial flushing, headache, nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps immediately after consuming an alcoholic drink. Which of these drugs did she likely take?
The symptoms described—facial flushing, headache, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal cramps—occurring immediately after drinking alcohol are classic signs of a Disulfiram-like reaction.
Mechanism: Metronidazole inhibits the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase in the liver.
The Reaction: Normally, the liver breaks down alcohol into acetaldehyde, and then quickly breaks acetaldehyde down into acetate (which is harmless). When aldehyde dehydrogenase is blocked by Metronidazole, acetaldehyde accumulates in the blood.
Toxicity: Acetaldehyde is toxic and causes the severe physical symptoms described (flushing, violent vomiting, palpitations, hypotension).
Clinical Implication: Patients prescribed Metronidazole must be counseled to avoid all alcohol (including mouthwash or cough syrups containing alcohol) during therapy and for at least 72 hours (3 days) after the last dose to ensure the enzyme has recovered.
