Association of infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotype O11 with intravenous abuse of pentazocine mixed with tripelennamine.
From July 1979 to June 1983, 25 of 40 intravenous drug addicts with systemic infections had Pseudomonas aeruginosa as the etiological agent; by 1982, P. aeruginosa had replaced Staphylococcus aureus as the most common pathogen. At least 21 of the 25 addicts with P. aeruginosa infection abused pentazocine mixed with tripelennamine (commonly known as T's and blues) compared with 6 of 15 addicts i...
متن کاملAcute myocardial infarction associated with intravenous injection of pentazocine and tripelennamine.
This case report describes the evolution of an acute anteroseptal myocardial infarction in a 27-year-old man following intravenous injection of pentazocine and tripelennamine. Subsequent coronary angiography showed normal coronary arteries. Based on the known mechanism of action of these drugs, it is postulated that myocardial infarction resulted from coronary artery spasm secondary to excessiv...
متن کاملAn Invasive Case of Left-Sided Endocarditis Caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a Patient with History of Intravenous Drug Abuse

We present a case of a 63-year-old male who presented with abdominal pain and fever. Computed tomography (CT) abdomen showed splenic and renal infarct. The blood culture grew Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A transthoracic echocardiogram showed a...
متن کاملDetection of pentazocine and tripelennamine in urine.
Pentazocine and tripelennamine can be identified in urine as a part of routine screening for drug abuse. Pentazocine, pentazocine hydrate, and tripelennamine can be detected by thin-layer chromatography of chloroform/isopropanol extracts of heat- and acid-hydrolyzed urine. Gas chromatography is used for confirmation. Gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric studies (chemical ionization mode) show...
