Validamycin Ingestion: A Rare Case of Poisoning With a Surprisingly Benign Outcome – Our Experience in a Resource‐Limited Emergency Setting
Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Validamycin ingestion is a rare encounter in emergency settings. There is no specific antidote, with management being largely symptomatic. Overzealous treatment and referral to higher centers are not necessary, as consumption of even large doses of Validamycin is non-toxic to humans; rather, addressing the intention behind ingestion is more important.
