Abstract:
Haemoperfusion through Amberlite XAD-4 was used in a female patient who took with suicidal intention 29 tablets of Syntophylline. During 5 hours of haemoperfusion the theophylline plasma concentration declined significantly to the lower limit of the therapeutic range. Early application of haemoperfusion, using Amberlite XAD-4, led to rapid regression of symptoms of acute intoxication and recovery of the patient.
