Abstract:
A 41 year old man with overdose of nicardipine is reported. Quickly after the poisoning, he developed a cardiovascular collapse picture with renal failure and myocardium ischemia. The clinical picture improved with injection of dobutamine and dopamine. The hemodynamic study showed a fall of the systemic resistances. The recovery was complete 40 hours after the ingestion.
