A case of successful suicide from overdose of amitriptyline, perphenazine, and midazolam is described. Postmortem findings were inadequate to explain the death. Sudden cardiac arrest suggested that the death from overdose probably resulted from drug cardiotoxicity. The physicians should be aware of this serious complication when prescribing a combination of these potential lethal drugs. A limited supply should be given to depressed patients.
描述了一例因过量服用阿米替林、奋乃静和咪达唑仑导致自杀成功的病例。尸检结果不足以解释死因。心脏骤停提示过量用药致死可能是药物心脏毒性所致。医生在开具这些潜在致命药物的组合处方时应意识到这种严重并发症。对于抑郁症患者应限量供应。
