Case 4
• A 59 years old lady was recently prescribed
transdermal patch for treatment of her
Alzheimer’s disease because of poor oral drug
compliance.
• The patient was found to have vomiting,
diarrhoea, dizziness and generalized limb
weakness the day after starting the patch.
• The patient was fully conscious, with blood
pressure 137/73 mmHg and pulse rate of 58
bpm.
• Her pupil size were 2 mm, chest clear on
auscultation and bowel sounds were normal.

Name the antidote(s) for overdose of this drug.
•
Answer: Atropine (Pralidoxime usually not indicated in carbamate poisoning)
• Note:
• Clinical presentation in overdose: CNS depression,
vomiting, diarrhoea, sweating, bradycardia, miosis,
muscle weakness, muscle fasciculations (DUMBELS +
nicotinic over-stimulation) etc
• A patient died from pre-renal failure from excessive
diarrhoea and vomiting
• Patch resembles colour of skin so may be missed if not
searched carefully
• Pseudocholinesterase level may be low but not
predictive of clinical severity

• Hx of Antithrombin III deficiency
• Presented with
• Headache for a few days

• BP 130/80, p 90/min
• Afebrile
• GCS 13/15; E3V4M6
• PERL
• Right hemi-paresis with power grade 4/5
