DESCRIPTION OF THE CASE AND EXAMINATION OF THE LITERATURE RELATING TO ACUTE POISONING WITH THESE SUBSTANCES, WHETHER ALONE OR IN ASSOCIATION WITH OTHER DRUGS.
Abstract
FROM THE CLINICAL PICTURE OBSERVED IN THIS CASE OF EXCESS DOSAGE, IT IS ASSUMED THAT POTENTIATION TOOK PLACE OR, AT ANY RATE, THAT A CUMULATIVE EFFECT WAS PRODUCED BY THE TWO DRUGS. IN THE ABSENCE OF ANATOMOPATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS CHARACTERISTIC AND INDICATIVE OF THE TAKING OF SUCH DRUGS, IT IS CONSIDERED ADVISABLE TO CARRY OUT CHEMICAL AND TOXICOLOGICAL TESTS, EVEN THOUGH DEATH WAS APPARENTLY ACCIDENTAL.
