  • Title: Multiple seizures after bupropion overdose in a small child.
    Author: Spiller HA, Schaeffer SE.
    Journal: Pediatr Emerg Care; 2008 Jul; 24(7):474-5. PubMed ID: 18633310.
    Abstract:
    Unintentional ingestion of bupropion in young children has generally resulted in limited toxicity. We report a case of pediatric bupropion ingestion resulting in multiple seizures. The patient experienced hallucinations, agitation, vomiting, tachycardia and seizures after ingestion of 1050 (48 mg/kg) of extended-release bupropion. The potential for severe toxicity in the setting of pediatric overdose should be recognized.
