Diquat intoxication.
Reported is the case of a 23-year-old man who ingested 300 mL of Reglone. He developed vomiting five to 10 minutes after ingestion. Shortly thereafter, he developed renal and central nervous system manifestations of toxicity, followed by cardiovascular collapse and death 14 hours after admission. Autopsy findings revealed esophagitis, tracheitis, gastritis, and ileitis. Prompt, aggressive therapy that included fluid replacement and removal of the toxin was unsuccessful.
