    A false hyperchloremia in a patient with a history of depression suspected bromide intoxication. The diagnosis was confirmed by an increased bromide concentration > 20 mmoL.L-1. Rehydration was effective and allowed to decrease bromide concentration. In conclusion, hyperchloremia associated with a negative anion gap is a clue to the diagnosis.
