abstract="Chloroquine intoxication, despite therapeutic improvements, remains a potentially serious condition. We report a case of a 25-year-old patient, having ingested 10 g of chloroquine, a dose commonly considered to be lethal. Thanks to appropriate early medical treatment, this patient's outcome was favourable. To our knowledge, the literature contains no other report of survival of a patient after such an intake. This report emphasises the need to use a pre-designed medical care protocol to implement appropriate therapy as rapidly as possible.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
