Higher doses caused significant cardiac side effects have been reported in which the serious cardiac arrhythmias. These side effects are rare life-threatening consequences. Therefore it raises serious concerns in the physician during treatment. In this paper, we want to offer 8-year-old male patient who admitted to the emergency Mobitz type 1 AV block associated with the use of methylphenidate in order to contribute to the literature.

Özet

Metilfenidat çocuklarda Dikkat Eksikliği Hiperaktivite Bozukluğu (DEHB)’ nun tedavisinde sıklıkla kullanılan bir farmakolojik ajandır. Tedavi dozlarında oldukça güvenli bir ilaç olarak kabul edilir. Özellikle tedavinin ilk günlerinde klinik olarak anlamlı olmayan ve risk taşımayan, hafif düzeyde kan basıncı değişiklikleri görülebilirken daha yüksek dozlarda ciddi kardiyak aritmilerinde içinde bulunduğu önemli kardiyak yan etkilerin geliştiği bildirilmiştir. Yaşamsal önem teşkil eden yan etkiler oldukça nadir görülse bile, ilaç kullanımı sırasında hekimlerde ciddi endişelere sebeb olabilmektedir. Bizde bu yazıda DEHB nedeni ile metilfenidat kullanan, Mobitz tip 1 AV blok ile acile başvuran 8 yaşındaki erkek hastamızı literatüre katkı sağlamak amacıyla sunmak istedik.
