Survival after massive overdose of slow-release potassium.

N R Colledge1, B Northridge, D M Fraser.   

Abstract

Self-poisoning with potassium salts is uncommon but the consequences are often fatal. Previous reports describe death after ingestion of between 40 and 50 tablets of slow-release potassium but we report a patient who survived after taking approximately 100 tablets.
