Glyphosate Poisoning with Acute Fulminant Hepatic Failure
Background: Glyphosate containing herbicides are widely used the world over. They are marketed as nontoxic to humans, but numerous studies have showed that these glyphosate-based herbicides (GlySH) can cause multiorgan damage.1 Recent reports of animal studies on rats have raised a doubt of liver damage after long term exposure to GlySH. Case Presentation: a young male had chronic exposure to G...
متن کاملAdding topiramate to valproate therapy may cause reversible hepatic failure.
The authors report a 51-year-old women with pharmacoresistant partial epilepsy who tolerated well valproate monotherapy and in combination with several other antiepileptic drugs, but developed symptoms and signs of reversible hepatic failure under a combination of valproate and topiramate. Symptoms resolved after discontinuation of VPA. This case provides further anecdotal evidence that topiram...
متن کاملHalothane induced fulminant hepatic failure.
A rare case of halothane-induced fulminant hepatic failure is reported in a 22 years old male, who developed fever, jaundice, coma and deranged coagulation profile, 2 days after undergoing laparotomy under halothane anaesthesia. Despite all supportive care, he died of fulminant hepatic failure, 6 days after surgery. Postmortem liver biopsy revealed massive predominantly centrilobular hepatic ne...
متن کاملPlasma and hepatic carnitine and coenzyme A pools in a patient with fatal, valproate induced hepatotoxicity.
Reduced hepatic mitochondrial beta-oxidation and changes in the plasma carnitine pool are important biochemical findings in valproate induced liver toxicity. The carnitine pools in plasma and liver and the liver coenzyme A (CoA) pool in a patient with fatal, valproate induced hepatotoxicity were measured. In plasma and liver the free and total carnitine contents were decreased, whereas the rati...
متن کاملThe Role of Allium saralicum Extract on Prevention of Acetaminophen-Induced Hepatic Failure: an Experimental Study
Background and objectives: Acetaminophen (APAP) is a common analgesic medicine whose overdose leads to severe hepatic dysfunction. Due to the known antioxidant properties of Alliumspecies, the present study aimed to evaluate the protective effects of Allium saralicum plant on APAP induced liver toxicity. Methods: The hydro-alcoholic e...
