An Alternative Treatment Method for Poisoning in Veterinary Medicine: Intravenous Lipid Emulsion (ILE)

Öz

Animal poison control centers receive numerous complaints about possible consumption of substances that can cause deadly toxicities in the home. In recent years, over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen, acetaminophen, and herbal supplements are the most common toxic substances consumed by pets. Removal of the toxin and supportive treatment is recommended in case of exposure to a toxin that does not have a known antidote. There have been many studies in both human and veterinary medicine that supporting the use of intravenous lipid emulsions in the treatment of intoxications. Intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE) is an oil-in-water emulsion that consists of egg yolk phospholipids, water, glycerin and various oils such as soybean, fish, coconut and olive oil. It is defined as a microemulsion with a long history of use as a parenteral nutrition formulation in both adult and pediatric patients. Also used as a drug carrier in addition to parenteral nutrition. In recent years, it has been used as an effective antidote for the treatment of intoxications caused by compounds with high oil solubility in both human and veterinary medicine. The first efficacy of the use of intravenous lipid emulsions in treatments was demonstrated in the systemic toxicity of local anesthetics and nowadays it comes to the fore in the poisoning of various drugs and compounds. However, it can also be used as an antidote in various intoxication cases caused by different chemicals that do not have any known antidote. Although clinically positive responses are received, more research is needed to more clearly understand the effect of intravenous lipid emulsion.
