Abstract

Two patients presented with a rather unusual form and documentation of amiodarone toxicity. General aspects on this topic are addressed with emphasis on neurotoxicity and pulmonary disease. The need for rational prescribing and a scrupulous follow-up is stressed in view of apparent unawareness of general physicians and organ-related specialists alike regarding these very phenomena.

Keywords: amiodarone; neurotoxicity; pulmonary toxicity
