(4) <br />Carbon Bisulphide: The toxic effects of Carbon Bisulphide, particularly on the nervous system, can be <br />intensified by consumption of alcohol, alcoholism, treatment with disulfiram (Antibuse), and exposure to <br />Hydrogen Sulphide. (4) In animal studies the toxicity of Carbon Bisulphide was intensified by chemicals <br />such as resperine and amphetamine which act on the nervous system.
