Locally prepared liquor, which is not standardized or regulated, though cheap can contain various toxic ingredients and even may be fatal. We report a case series of four adult males who died within 18.5 h due to the effect of local liquor consumption in a hilly district of Gandaki Province of Nepal. Methanol toxicity due to illicitly produced alcohol consumption should be managed with adequate supportive care and administration of specific antidotes such as ethanol or fomepizole. Liquor production should be standardized, and quality checks should be done before the sale for consumption.
当地酿造的酒未经标准化或监管,虽然价格便宜,但可能含有各种有毒成分,甚至可能致命。我们报告了一组病例,四名成年男性在尼泊尔甘达基省一个山区饮用当地酒18.5小时内死亡。因饮用非法生产的酒精导致甲醇中毒,应给予充分的支持治疗,并使用乙醇或甲吡唑等特效解毒剂。酒类生产应标准化,销售供消费前应进行质量检查。
