Abstract EN
Demographic profiles, volume consumed, time to hospitalization, clinical presentation, laboratory findings, treatment details, and outcomes of patients with hair dye poisoning were analyzed to assess the effect of Super Vasmol 33.
The efficacy of methylprednisolone as compared to hydrocortisone in patients was also investigated.
Findings show that there are significant differences in the clinical profiles laboratory markers such as markers of leukocytosis, rhabdomyolysis, and hepatitis among patients who consumed fewer volumes than larger volumes.
Toxicity is dose dependent with increased morbidity and mortality.
Consumption of even lower volumes resulted in hepatitis.
For an apparently similar clinical and laboratory profile of patients, treatment with hydrocortisone is as effective as methylprednisolone in the clinical outcomes.
These findings suggest that Super Vasmol 33 is emerging as a major source of poisoning.
