Intravenous lipid emulsion infusion in acute intoxication with fenitrothion

Treatment of Severe Carbamazepine Intoxication with Intravenous Lipid Emulsion Therapy

Carbamazepine (CBZ) is a widely prescribed anticonvulsant agent. It is used in treatment of epilepsy including general tonic-clonic, simple partial and complex partial seizures, neuropathicpains, especially in trigeminalneuralgia, central diabetes insipidus, attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorders and bipolar disorders. CBZ overdose is usually associated with cardiac, neurologic and respi...

Intravenous Lipid Emulsion Treatment and High-Dose Amlodipine Intoxication: A Case Report

Intravenous Lipid Emulsion Therapy for Acute Synthetic Cannabinoid Intoxication: Clinical Experience in Four Cases

There is no specific antidote for intoxication with synthetic cannabinoids. In this case series, we considered the efficiency of intravenous lipid emulsion therapy in four cases, who presented to emergency department with synthetic cannabinoid (bonzai) intoxication. The first patient had a GCS of 3 and a left bundle branch block on electrocardiography. The electrocardiography revealed sinus rhy...

Exploring the effect of intravenous lipid emulsion in acute methamphetamine toxicity

Objective(s): The increasing use of methamphetamine (METH) in the last decades has made it the second most abused drug. Advancs in the area of intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) have led to its potential application in the treatment of poisoning. The present study aims to investigate the potential role of ILE as an antidote for acute METH poisoning. Materials and Methods: Two groups of six male r...

Failure of Intravenous Lipid Emulsion to Reduce Diazinon-induced Acute Toxicity: a Pilot Study in Rats

  Diazinon (DZN) is a synthetic organophosphorus (OPs) insecticide widely used in agricultural and household applications. OPs, particularly DZN, are highly lipid soluble liquids. Intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) has been shown to reduce toxicity caused by some lipid soluble agents. We evaluated the antidote effect of ILE on acute toxicity of DZN. Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley female rats weightin...
