Abstract
Recent reports have dealt with the use of physostigmine in reversal of central anticholinergic syndromes produced by drugs with anticholinergic properties. Benzquinamide, first introduced as a tranquilizer (Quantril) and now used as an antiemetic agent (Emete-con), has anticholinergic properties. This is a [human] case report demonstrating the successful reversal of benzquinamide-induced delirium by physostigmine.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
