N2  - Introduction: Thyroid storm is a hypermetabolic condition that is usually seen in patients with undiagnosed or poorly treated hyperthyroid diseases with a high mortality rate. The incidence of thyroid storm in the emergency department is low, with a mortality rate of 20%-30%; thus, it should not be overlooked. However, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment may reduce mortality and morbidity rates.Case Report: We report a case of thyroid storm here in a patient who was admitted to the emergency department with complaints of fever and change in consciousness, with irregular drug use for hyperthyroidism, who experienced thyroid storm triggered by salicylate.Conclusion: In the emergency departments, thyroid storm must be put on the list of differential diagnoses if the patient is unconscious with fever
