The incidence risk is of 0.11%. It is often occurs when a patient is prescribed on antipsychotic for long duration of time. \u0000 \u0000Case Report \u0000We report a case of a female patient, two weeks in post natal period presented with altered behaviour at home. She has prior admission being treated for post partum psychosis with anti psychotic. However antipschotic was withheld as she developed extrapyramidal symptoms while in ward. At home, she developed fever, altered sensorium and fitting-like-episode. On arrival patient was unresponsive and with features of impaired airway patency. Her had unstable vital sign with elevated blood pressure, heart rate and temperature. Brain imagine came back normal, excluding brain pathology. She was diagnosed as neuroleptic malignant syndrome as fulfilled features of elevated creatine kinase. She was treated symptomatic by providing first aid to reduce temperature and started on benzodiazepines. She was subsequently admitted to intensive ward and responded well to treatment \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000Physician must be familiar and have high index of suspicious to identify and treat neuroleptic malignant syndrome.

The present investigation documents a case of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) in an elderly male patient, aged 81, following the consumption of sildenafil. Case Report: An 81-year-old male patient who was previously diagnosed with syncope was admitted to our Emergency Department. He reported symptoms of dyspnea and vertigo. Approximately two hours before admission, there was a history of accidentally ingesting a total dose of 100 milligrams of sildenafil. Conclusion: The occurrence of PTE after sildenafil administration in this case, albeit rare, underscores the significance of meticulous evaluation of medications during patient history-taking. This case report, the importance of thorough efforts to rule out the diagnosis of PTE and to address even the slightest suspicion.","PeriodicalId":41189,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Emergency Medicine Case Reports","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141382477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
