Abstract:
Phenazopyridine (Sedural) is widely used in the treatment of dysuria. It is considered a benign drug and most physicians are unaware of its potential toxicity. A 24-year-old woman who developed methemoglobinemia, acute renal failure and hemolytic anemia following a single 1 g dose of the drug is presented.
