title: Can dopamine beta-hydroxylase levels predict adverse reactions to disulfiram?
abstract: Disulfiram had more pronounced sedative effects on healthy normal subjects with low levels of plasma dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) than it did on subjects with higher levels. It is suggested that DBH levels might provide a means of predicting increased susceptibility to disulfiram side effects.
