    Author: Borrett D, Ashby P, Bilbao J, Carlen P.
    Journal: Ann Neurol; 1985 Apr; 17(4):396-9. PubMed ID: 2988411.
    Abstract:
    Disulfiram toxicity is a well-recognized cause of peripheral neuropathy and encephalopathy, usually developing within a few months of the start of therapy. We describe a patient who insidiously developed a peripheral neuropathy and encephalopathy after thirty years of disulfiram ingestion. Both complications partially resolved after the medication was stopped.
