Abstract
Most arrhythmias associated with Metronidazole overdose are related to
the co-ingested drugs as Metronidazole affects the metabolism of these
drugs. In this case, ventricular fibrillation occurred in a young
patient who overdosed on Metronidazole without preexisting medical
conditions or any other known drug ingestion, which was never reported
before
