Case presentation
In this case, we are presenting 26-year-old young patients, who took
60-gram metformin plus 900 mg pioglitazone, presenting with abdominal
pain, nausea, confusion, and lethargy. And lactic acidosis was treated
with continuous hemodialysis >15 hours. Our aim, in this
case, is to highlight the importance of continuous hemodialysis in the
treatment of metformin poisoning.
