Case report on Ipratropium Bromide induced Anisocoria

Abstract

Anisocoria or unequal pupil size is an alarming sign of a neurologic emergency, especially when the patient is in a critical care setting. It is important to identify the aetiology of anisocoria and consider drug-induced anisocoria as a possible aetiology after ruling out underlying pathology if any. Ipratropium bromide, an anticholinergic drug, can cause anisocoria. This case report emphasises Ipratropium bromide-induced anisocoria.
