Abstract
An alcoholic patient had a gradual increase of BP while he was treated with disulfiram. The BP returned to normal after the disulfiram was withdrawn. Increased BP should be considered a possible side effect of long-term disulfiram therapy, especially in the presence of alcohol-induced liver damage.
