Refractory cardiogenic shock due to atomoxetine overdose rescued by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: A case report
Background
Atomoxetine, a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, may lead to severe complications, notably cardiac issues, upon overdose. We present a unique case of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) rescue for atomoxetine-induced cardiogenic shock.
Case Presentation
We report a 30-year-old man who, after ingesting a significant overdose of atomoxetine, experienced seizures and severe cardiogenic shock, necessitating VA-ECMO for resuscitation. While prior reports have noted cardiovascular complications like QTc prolongation and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy following atomoxetine overdose, this case is notable for its life-threatening circulatory failure, which required ECMO intervention. Swift recognition coupled with VA-ECMO initiation, endoscopic medication removal, intravenous lipid emulsion, and activated charcoal may have played a pivotal role in stabilizing the patient and facilitating recovery.
Conclusion
Healthcare practitioners should recognize the severe cardiac complications of atomoxetine overdose. Careful monitoring with ECG and echocardiography, along with providing intensive care, is crucial in managing critical cases.
