Abstract
Rationale: The application of Xingnaojing injection is widespread; however, drug-induced fever associated with this medication is challenging to diagnose. Previous literature rarely reports cases of drug-induced fever resulting from the use of Xingnaojing injection.
Patient concerns: A 46-year-old male patient, who underwent surgery for cerebral hemorrhage, presented with fever. The condition is considered to be drug fever induced by the administration of Xingnaojing.
Diagnoses: Considering the potential for drug fever associated with the administration of Xingnaojing injection.
Interventions: Discontinue the use of Xingnaojing injection.
Outcomes: The patient has shown improvement and is being discharged.
Lessons: Clinical practitioners should enhance the prevention and management of adverse drug reactions to reduce both patient hospitalization duration and economic costs, thereby ensuring the safety of medication use for patients.
