Answer:

C. If I decide to drink, I should stop taking disulfiram at least one week prior to consuming alcohol.

Explanation:

This is because alcohol is contraindicated in disulfiram.

Mechanism of action of disulfiram:

Disulfiram works by blocking the breakdown of alcohol in the body. If then taking alongside alcohol, alcohol will build up in the body (toxins) and cause sickness.
