Baclofen-induced toxicity in renal disease with neurotoxicity and skin rash.

We present a case of accidental overdose of baclofen in a 58-year-old woman with intractable trigeminal neuralgia. She presented with baclofen neurotoxicity symptoms including confusion and tremors and had a morbilliform rash in the dorsum of both hands. This simultaneous presentation is rare and has never been reported. Her symptoms resolved after hemodialysis treatment. PMID: 31384209 [PubMed]
