This case report highlights the potentially serious side effects of hyoscine and how a seemingly innocuous patch may confound patients and doctors alike. It demonstrates how easy it is to miss an obvious diagnosis when in fact a thorough medical history including an exhaustive drug history can easily point us in the direction of the diagnosis fairly quickly. Finally, hyoscine may cause potentially serious side effects and patients who are taking it, either orally or transdermally, should be made aware of these.
本病例报告强调了氢溴酸东莨菪碱可能产生的严重副作用,以及看似无害的贴片如何使患者和医生同样感到困惑。它表明,当实际上一个完整的病史,包括详尽的药物史,很容易就能迅速指出诊断方向时,我们很容易忽略一个明显的诊断。最后,氢溴酸东莨菪碱可能引起潜在的严重副作用,因此应让正在口服或经皮使用该药的患者了解这些副作用。
