, &
Pages 305-308 | Published online: 25 Sep 2008
 

Abstract

A life-threatening intoxication, requiring ventilatory support, is reported from the ingestion of 3.05 g of buflomedil, a peripheral vasodilator. Buflomedil at a dosage of 50 mg/kg weight produces seizures. Hypotension is not a specific symptom of intoxication. Buflomedil poisoning can be easily confused with other drugs, especially tricyclic antidepressants.
