TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Supraventricular tachyarrhythmia associated with baclofen overdose JO - Journal of toxicology - clinical toxicology A1 - Roberge, R. J. A1 - Martin, T. G. A1 - Hodgman, M.

We present the case of a 21-year-old man with an acute baclofen overdose who developed increased cardiac conduction times and a rapid supraventricular tachyarrhythmia which required medical intervention. Acute baclofen toxicity can result in the development of tachyarrhythmias and cardiac monitoring is warranted in acute overdose states.
