TY - JOUR PY - 2000// TI - Massive ibuprofen ingestion with survival JO - Journal of toxicology - clinical toxicology A1 - Seifert, S. A. A1 - Bronstein, A. C. A1 - McGuire, T. SP - 55 EP - 57 VL - 38 IS - 1 N2 - OBJECTIVE: To report a massive, 100 g ibuprofen ingestion in an adolescent, with survival. CASE REPORT: The patient developed coma, metabolic acidosis, and mild thrombocytopenia, but improved rapidly with supportive care. Renal function remained normal and no gastrointestinal bleeding occurred. CONCLUSIONS: Massive ingestion of ibuprofen may result in a variable picture with some elements of significant toxicity, but supportive care usually results in survival without sequelae.
