Kratom exposures reported to Texas poison centers.
Kratom use is a growing problem in the United States. Kratom exposures reported to Texas poison centers between January 1998 and September 2013 were identified. No kratom exposures were reported from 1998 to 2008 and 14 exposures were reported from 2009 to September 2013. Eleven patients were male, and 11 patients were in their 20s. The kratom was ingested in 12 patients, inhaled in 1, and both...
متن کاملEvaluation of Mutagenicity of Mebudipine, a New Calcium Channel Blocker
Mebudipine is a new dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, synthesized in our laboratory, for treatment of hypertension. It has shown a better efficacy than other drugs in this group. For assessing the risks of this drug, certain safety tests in the preclinical stage have been performed. In this study mutagenic effect of mebudipine was evaluated using Ames assay that could assess the mutageni...

متن کاملPoison Control Center Management of Benzocaine Exposures
Benzocaine is a topical anesthetic frequently used in healthcare facilities and in over-the-counter medications in concentrations up to 20%. Benzocaine may induce methemoglobinemia, a condition that impairs the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. The optimal management of exposure to benzocaine remains unclear because serious toxicity is uncommon and may not be dose-related. In 2000, it was estima...
