Hemodiyaliz ve L-Carnitine ile Valproik Asit Zehirlenmesinin Başarılı Tedavisi

Year 2013, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 10 - 12, 01.01.2013

Abstract

Valproik asit (VPA) geniş spektrumlu bir antiepileptiktir, bu nedenle yaygın olarak kullanılması özkıyım vakalarında sık karşılaşılmasına yol açmıştır. VPA toksisitesinde elektrolit bozuklukları,
hepatotoksisite, pankreatit, kemik iliği süpresyonu, beyin ödemi
görülebilir. Ancak, VPA doz aşımı tedavisi için spesifik bir antidot
yoktur. Olgu sunumları naloxone, L-karnitin ve çeşitli extrakorporeal eliminasyon tekniklerininVPA toksisitesinde etkinliğini açıklamaktadır. Biz 31 yaşında VPA intoksikasyonu bayan olgunun hemodiyaliz ve L karnitin ile başarılı tedavisini ve VPA toksisitesine
yaklaşımın literatürünün gözden geçirilmesini burada sunuyoruz.

Successful Treatment of Valproic Acid Intoxication with Hemodialysis and L-Carnitine

Year 2013, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 10 - 12, 01.01.2013

Abstract

Valproic acid (VPA) is a conventional antiepileptic drug and, in parallel to its widespread prescription, it has been used in many cases of suicide attempts. VPA intoxication may cause electrolyte disturbances, hepatotoxicity, pancreatitis, bone marrow suppression, and brain edema. However, there is no specific antidote for treatment of VPA overdose. Case reports describe the efficacy of naloxone, L-carnitine and various extracorporeal elimination techniques in the treatment of VPA toxicity. We present the case of a 31 year old female with VPA intoxication who was successfully treated with hemodialysis and L-carnitine, and a review of the literature on the management of VPA overdose
