TY - JOUR PY - 1982// TI - Acute verapamil poisoning: successful treatment with epinephrine JO - Clinical cardiology A1 - Chimienti, M. A1 - Previtali, M. A1 - Medicia, A. A1 - Piccinini, M. SP - 219 EP - 222 VL - 5 IS - 3 N2 - Acute intoxication with verapamil (2400 mg) induced A-V dissociation and circulatory failure in a 38-year-old woman with no previous cardiac disease. Resumption of A-V conduction was observed after administration of orciprenalin, calcium gluconate, and dopamine, with no effect on blood pressure. Epinephrine infusion finally restored satisfactory blood pressure level and allowed a favorable outcome.
