Successful treatment of chloral hydrate cardiac toxicity with propranolol.

A Zahedi1, M H Grant, D T Wong.   

Abstract

A case of chloral hydrate overdose causing resistant ventricular arrhythmias is presented. Our case and other case reports suggest that chloral hydrate-induced arrhythmias are resistant to standard antiarrhythmic agents and that intravenous beta blockers should be the firstline treatment for these arrhythmias.
