Abstract

Benzydamine is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, currently available as mouthwash, aerosol, dermal cream, vaginal douche preparation, pills and otic drops. Up to now no cases of poisoning due to this drug have been reported. A 6-year-old girl with an accidental poisoning with benzydamine is described. The episode consisted of hallucinosis without other symptoms and resolved spontaneously in 17 h.
