Document Details : Title: Symptomatic hypoglycemia in a patient with chronic hemodialysis Author(s): VANDECANDELAERE P, VERBANCK J, MATTHYS K, DE HOON J, VERBESSELT R Journal: Acta Clinica Belgica Volume: 61 Issue: 5 Date: 2006 Pages: 249-251 DOI: 10.2143/ACB.61.5.1002701 Abstract : We describe the case of a 71-years-old man in chronic hospital hemodialysis who was admitted to the hospital because of symptomatic hypoglycemia. We discovered that this was due to a documented intoxication with cibenzoline, an antiarrhythmic drug, used to treat (supra-)ventricular tachyarrhythmia. In addition we made a short review of the literature concerning cibenzoline intoxication. |
