摘要：
Alpha-lipoic acid is a widely used medication that does not need a prescription. Although it is safely used in adults, hitherto no safe dose for children has been reported, and there is no known antidote. The medical literature provides four reports of alpha-lipoic acid intoxication in the pediatric population to date. This case-report is the lowest known dose of alpha-lipoic acid intake leading to poisoning in a teenager.
