Abstract

Sulfasalazine (salicylazosulfapyridine, Azulfidine) has been widely used over the last half century for inflammatory bowel diseases, but overdose has not been reported. A 23 year-old male ingested 25 g of sulfasalazine in a suicide attempt. He underwent prompt treatment and survived with no ill-effects.
