Abstract

The authors report one case of voluntary intoxication induced with 2,700 mg of propafenone in a 23 y.o. man presenting a right ventricle dysplasia. The intoxication is expressed by a blood pressure drop with convulsions and conduction disorders: 1st degree A-V block and transient right bundle branch block. The serum levels of propafenone, initially at 3,185 ng/ml reach therapeutic levels in 8 hours.
