Corticosteroids are drugs widely used in routine clinical practice that are however associated with neuropsychiatric adverse effects. This paper describes the case of a seventy-one- year man who developed manic symptoms after taking with corticosteroids and was successfully treated with quetiapine and, on the other hand, reviews corticos-teroid-induced mania.

Palavras-chave : bipolar disorder; mania; adrenal cortex hormones; medical oncology; quetiapine.
