We report a case of a 50-year-old man with intractable hypotension, which led to ischemic electrocardiogram (ECG) changes and myocardial injury due to relative myocardial ischemia as a result of a disulfiram-ethanol reaction. This is the first report that assessed cardiac function during hypotension and ischemic ECG changes by emergency coronary angiography, left ventriculography, and right heart catheterization. This case indicates that disulfiram potentially has fatal side effects due to a disulfiram-ethanol reaction.
