Overdose of methyldopa, indapamide and theophylline resulting in prolonged hypotension, marked diuresis and hypokalaemia in an elderly patient
Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety, 09/15/09
Chan TYK et al. – The prescribing physicians should recognise elderly patients at a high risk of self–poisoning and avoid using drugs with a high toxicity in overdose (e.g. theophylline and methyldopa). Restricting access to hazardous drugs would be of paramount importance to reduce the number of severe acute poisoning cases and case–fatalities.
