We are reporting a case of zolpidem induced multimodal hallucinations in a 22 year old female without any history of psychiatric disorders. Zolpidem, by acting on gamma-amino butyric acid type A receptor has a potential to cause a paradoxical reaction and there also exists a possibility of an induced delirium with its use. This case reports evaluates its potential to cause multimodal hallucinations. Zolpidem needs to be prescribed judiciously with the caution of potential side effects particularly in females.
我们报告了一例22岁女性服用唑吡坦后出现多模式幻觉的病例,该女性无任何精神疾病史。唑吡坦通过作用于A型γ-氨基丁酸受体,有可能引起矛盾反应,使用该药也存在诱发谵妄的可能性。本病例报告评估了其导致多模式幻觉的可能性。唑吡坦需要谨慎处方,尤其要注意其潜在副作用,对女性患者更是如此。
