Abstract EN

Delirious mania is a severe but often underrecognized syndrome characterized by rapid onset of delirium, mania, and psychosis, not associated with a prior toxicity, physical illness, or mental disorder.

We discuss the case of a delirious mania potentially triggered and maintained by a systemic hypotension induced by antihypertensive drugs.

Symptoms recovered completely after the discontinuation of antihypertensive medications and the normalization of blood pressure levels.
