A fatal case of repeated ventricular fibrillation following torsade de
pointes, due to multiple administrations of metoclopramide
Abstract
Although metoclopramide has many adverse effects, Torsade de pointes
(TdP) is rare. We describe a fatal case of repeated ventricular
fibrillation following TdP, due to multiple administrations of
metoclopramide. Multiple administrations of metoclopramide over a short
time to a patient with risk factors of TdP should be reconsidered.
