[A severe dystonic reaction in acute Torecan poisoning].
Phenothiazines are a widely used group of drugs for medical practice. Some of them, including Torecan, may induce dystonic reactions of severe aspect which may lead to errors of diagnosis. Although in the paediatric practice this drug is but seldom used the possibility of intoxications exists when it is used without a medical prescription. The authors present two cases where neurological manifestations occurred, as severe, dystonic phenomena, that had a favourable evolution, under adequate therapy.
