I'm really worried about my father. Weve used Dizone 250 mg before to help him stop drinking and it worked, but we stopped it for a year and he started wanting to drink again. We gave him one tablet with dinner and after a few days he felt really uneasy and started vomiting, just like last time. This time though, he had some blood in his vomit, which didnt happen before. Is it normal for this medicine to cause blood in vomit or should we be concerned about something else? I'm really worried about the blood part.

, forceful vomit may cause rupture of thin vein or capillary so vomiting may be occurred. Diazon is disulfiram an antialcoholic agent so it works.

I've been having some issues with my appetite; I don't feel like eating much after just two chapatis. Also, I'm dealing with stomach pain and I'm quite underweight, only around 38 kg at 5'2". I feel tired all the time. I have a history of erosive gastritis with bleeding. Do you think taking Liv 52 could help increase my appetite?
