Original Article
Prezentován je případ smrtící otravy etizolamem, phenobarbitalem, promethazinem a chlorpromazinem. Kvantitativní toxikologická analýza prokázala, že koncentrace v krvi odebrané ze stehenní žíly dosahovala u etizolamu 86 ng/ml, phenobarbitalu 5,082 μg/ml, promethazinu 0,107 μg/ml a chlorpromazinu 0,144 μg/ml, přičemž velké množství léků bylo také zjištěno v obsahu žaludku. Uzavřeli jsme, že příčina smrti byla v souvislosti se vzájemným působením četných psychotropních léků.
Klíčová slova:
četné léky – otrava – vysokoúčinná kapalinová chromatografie – etizolam – phenobarbital
