title: Disulfiram-induced combined irreversible anterior ischemic optic neuropathy and reversible peripheral neuropathy: a prospective case report and review of the literature.
abstract: Disulfiram is an alcohol-deterring agent with few rare serious adverse effects, usually dose-related, reversible, and more frequent with comorbid alcohol and nicotine dependence. We report a prospective follow-up of such a case with reversible peripheral neuropathy and irreversible optic neuropathy.
