    Area of Science:

    • Toxicology
    • Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Poisoning prognosis can be improved by enhancing drug or toxin elimination.
    • Supportive care and antidote therapy are standard treatments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review pharmacological principles of enhanced elimination techniques in toxicology.
    • To outline indications and limitations of these methods.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of established methods for increasing drug/toxin elimination.
    • Discussion of peroral activated charcoal, forced diuresis, dialysis, and hemoperfusion.
    • Focus on pharmacological principles guiding technique selection.

    Main Results:

    • Enhanced elimination methods offer improved outcomes in specific poisonings.
