Management of life-threatening flecainide overdose: a case report of an infant
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 May 2021
Abstract
Flecainide overdose is associated with an approximately 10% mortality rate. The drug’s slow rate of elimination and high oral bioavailability make successful management extremely challenging. I present the management of a life-threatening flecainide overdose of an infant who had a protracted course due to the exposure to the drug in both the fetal and neonatal periods.
