[Case of serious renal failure induced by ingesting large volume of MAKIRON].
A 23-year-old male patient ingested 150 mL of MAKIRON in a suicide attempt and was transferred to the hospital emergency room approximately 30 hours after ingestion. Upon admission, components of MAKIRON, including naphazoline (1.4 microg/mL), chlorpheniramine (0.81 microg/mL), dibucaine (3.2 microg/mL) and benzethonium (5.5 microg/mL) were detected in the patient's plasma. Direct hemoperfusion and hemodiafiltration enforcement were carried out and the chemical components of MAKIRON were not detected the following day. At the time of hospitalization, the patient presented with serious hepatopathy, pneumonia and acute renal failure. The hepatopathy and pneumonia resolved several days later; however, the patient required continuation of dialysis three times per week for seventeen days due to persistence of anuria. Few case reports on renal failure induced by MAKIRON have been published, whereas there are occasional reports of MAKIRON poisoning. Serious renal dysfunction in this case is thought to be due to both the large volume of MAKIRON ingested and the time delay between ingestion and treatment.
