Methaemoglobinemia Induced by Poppers and Bupropion Intoxication in the Emergency Department.

Distinguishing toxidromes is critical for adequate treatment of patients with drug intoxication; the most common side effect of bupropion consumption is dose-dependent seizures.The diagnosis of methaemoglobinemia requires a high index of suspicion, particularly in a patient presenting with central cyanosis not responding to supplementary oxygen.Treatment with methylene blue is recommended when the percentage of methaemoglobin is above 30% or when the patient has symptoms related to methaemoglobinemia.
