摘要
Any class of drugs is susceptible to errors, in case of antineoplastic agents the medication errors may cause severe and life-threatening toxicity due to very limited therapeutic index with toxic events even at therapeutic dosage, to complexity of regimens and the particular vulnerable population. We report herein a case of Vinblastine (VBL) accidental overdose, the cause of mistake, the toxic effect and the salvage therapy adopted in a young lady suffering of Hodgkin relapse during IGEV chemotherapy.
