Abstract
GALLEGO UBEDA, M; HEREDIA BENITO, M; CAMPOS FERNANDEZ DE SEVILLA, MA and RUIZ DOMINGUEZ, A. Autumn pathology: micetisms, intoxication by Amanita virosa. Rev. OFIL·ILAPHAR [online]. 2020, vol.30, n.2, pp.157-159. Epub Mar 15, 2021. ISSN 1699-714X. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s1699-714x2020000200019.
Silibinin is used intravenously for the treatment of poisonings by Amanita phalloides and similar species such as A. virosa and A. verna. A family with suspected Amanita virosa poisoning comes to the Emergency Room. After evaluating the testimony of the patients, the symptoms they presented (characteristic phalloid syndrome), the clinical tests and after reviewing the bibliography from the Pharmacy Service, silibinin was requested from SUMMA and administered for 3 days, until the symptoms completely reverted and the patients could be discharged from hospital, who did not suffer complications thanks to early treatment and multidisciplinary collaboration.
Keywords : Silibinin; mushroom poisoning; Amanita virosa; phalloid syndrome.
