Text

In the four arm study by Petrakis et al (2005) in which open-label disulfiram + blinded placebo were compared to placebo, naltrexone, or open-label disulfiram + blinded naltrexone, we analyzed two comparisons: disulfiram + placebo compared to naltrexone or compared to placebo. Because the placebos in this study were for naltrexone, we labeled this comparison disulfiram vs “no disulfiram” in our analysis. We did not analyze the comparisons in which disulfiram and naltrexone were administered together.
