Abstract EN
Amlodipine overdose can be life-threatening when manifesting as noncardiogenic pulmonary edema.
Treatment remains challenging.
We describe a case of noncardiogenic pulmonary edema without refractory hypotension and bradycardia after ingestion of 500 milligram amlodipine with suicidal intent.
Mechanical ventilation, dexamethasone, atrovent HFA (ipratropium), pulmicort inhalation, and antibiotic therapy were used for the management.
Length of hospital stay was 11 days.
The patient was discharged with full recovery.
