HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Disulfiram (antabuse) is used to help fight alcohol abuse.
Normally when this medication is being used, ,liver function tests are done periodically to make sure that there is no effect on the liver.
In addition, blood tests are also done to check electrolytes and kidney function occasionally.
Drug testing can also be done to check for unreported alcohol or other drug use.
There are no tests to check specifically for disulfiram and it would not be detected in other tests.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
