Esperal 250 mg is a medicine that is used to treat chronic alcoholism. It is an alcohol-abuse deterrent. The medicine is used on a person who is addicted to the consumption of the alcoholic drink. It produces an acute sensitivity to alcohol. Disulfiram, the active ingredient of the medicine, is used to treat patients with chronic alcoholism. It is used along with psychotherapy, behaviour modification, support, and counselling to treat deep-rooted alcoholism. However, Disulfiram is not a cure for chronic alcoholism.
