We present an interesting case of recurrent dystonic crises in dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD) likely induced by excessive consumption of aspartame-containing products, in particular sugar-free energy drinks. This has a strong practical value as acute presentations to the emergency department can be avoided in these susceptible individuals. Usual medical and dietary advice in the treatment of DRD would include the avoidance of high-dose phenylalanine-containing products, and to this we would advocate the avoidance of high-dose aspartame-containing products.
我们报告了一例有趣的多巴反应性肌张力障碍(DRD)复发性肌张力障碍危象病例,可能是由于过量食用含阿斯巴甜的产品,特别是无糖能量饮料所致。这具有很强的实际价值,因为可以避免这些易感个体到急诊科进行急性就诊。DRD治疗中常见的医学和饮食建议包括避免食用高剂量含苯丙氨酸的产品,对此我们建议避免食用高剂量含阿斯巴甜的产品。
