Traditional medicine is practised to some degree in all cultures. Many different types of herbal preparations and "oils" are widely used in Malaysia, too. We report a case of acute salicylism due to accidental ingestion of one brand of such oils. Compulsory labelling of traditional drugs with their chemical ingredients is suggested for proper and timely management of such cases.
在所有文化中,传统医学都在一定程度上得到应用。许多不同类型的草药制剂和“油剂”在马来西亚也被广泛使用。我们报告了一例因意外摄入某一品牌此类油剂导致急性水杨酸中毒的病例。建议对传统药物强制标注其化学成分,以便对此类病例进行妥善及时的处理。
