متن کاملEvaluation of Oxidative Stress in Combination Therapy with D-penicillamine and N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) in Lead Poisoning in Opium Addicts
Background: N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a putative antioxidant and has gained attention as a promising agent for chelating heavy metals including lead. Considering the animal studies results, we hypothesized that adding NAC to the treatment regimen may improve the success of treatment with lead chelators. Methods: A total of 46 patients who were lead-poisoned opioid addicts were divided into two ...

متن کاملMercury poisoning in two 13-year-old twin sisters
Mercury (Hg) is a toxic agent that evaporates in room temperature and its inhalation may cause poisoning. Due to the nonspecific symptoms, diagnosis is difficult in special circumstances with no initial history of Hg exposure. We report two such cases of Hg poisoning. The patients were two sisters, presenting with pain in extremities, itchy rashes, sweating, salivation, weakness, and mood chang...
متن کاملDifferent behaviour of inorganic and organic mercury in renal excretion with reference to effects of D-penicillamine.
Inorganic and organic mercury was measured in the red cells, plasma, and urine of five laboratory workers to examine the effect of D-penicillamine. The workers had had no particular exposure to mercurials. Before and during administration of D-penicillamine, inorganic mercury levels in plasma were significantly correlated with those in urine or 24-hour urinary outputs, but no significant correl...
