Bupropion overdose and
seizure.
Storrow AB.
Department of
Emergency Medicine, Joint Military Medical Centers, Lackland Air Force
Base, San Antonio, TX 78236-5300.
There is little experience with
overdose of the relatively new antidepressant bupropion. The case of an
18-year-old healthy adult female patient after an intentional ingestion
of 9 g of bupropion is presented. Her hospital course was significant
for grand mal seizures, sinus tachycardia without conduction
abnormality, and complete neurological recovery. The first pure
bupropion overdose in the emergency medicine literature is presented,
and the literature pertinent to emergent management of this new
antidepressant is reviewed.
