Consumer:

Using procarbazine and ethanol drugs can cause flushing, nausea, headache, or blood pressure changes. Do not consume alcoholic beverages while taking procarbazine. It is important that you tell your healthcare provider about all other medications that you are using including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using your medications without talking to your doctor first.

Professional:

GENERALLY AVOID: The combined use of procarbazine and alcohol may result in a disulfiram-like reaction (flushing, nausea, headache, hypotension). Increased sedation may also occur. The mechanism may be due to inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase by procarbazine.

MANAGEMENT: The clinician should counsel patients receiving procarbazine to avoid the consumption of alcohol.
