Abstract

Colchicum autumnale is a unique drug that is largely effective in treatment of several diseases. It is seldomly encountered in an intentional overdose. An 25 years’ old, 50 kg male has admitted to intensive care unit 19 h after ingestion of 55 mg of colchicine. He developed severe systemic manifestations and multiorgan failure approximately 36 h after ingestion. In this case we aimed to discuss some clinical features and outcomes of colchicine intoxication.

Özet

Kolşisin, çeşitli hastalıkların tedavisinde oldukça etkili olan seçkin bir ilaçtır. Kasıtlı aşırı doz alımıyla nadiren karşılaşılır. 25 yaşında, 50 kg ağırlığında bir hasta 55 mg kolşisin oral alımından 19 saat sonra yoğun bakım ünitesine kabul edildi. Olguda oral kolşisin alımından 36 saat sonra çoklu organ yetmezliği gelişti. Bu olguda kolşisin zehirlenmesinin klinik özellikleri ve sonuçlarının tartışılması amaçlandı.
