The drug Jean has been given is most likely disulfiram, also known as Antabuse. This drug is used as a deterrent to drinking alcohol by causing unpleasant symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and headache if alcohol is consumed. Naloxone is used to reverse the effects of opioid overdose, Methadone is used to treat opioid addiction, and Diazepam is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety and muscle spasms.
