Three days after the procedure, the woman, who suffered from double vision, partial numbness, urinary incontinence, clouding of consciousness and oxygen deprivation, presented to the emergency department of Gaziantep University Hospital. According to the initial symptoms, the woman, who was determined to have botulinum poisoning, known as botox, was taken to intensive care. A study was conducted to find an antidote to treat the woman with severe symptoms in the intensive care unit. The antidote was found in Adana and taken to the hospital via 911. The woman, who immediately started her treatment with an antidote, began to recover after 5 days of intensive care treatment.

He had double vision, partial numbness, urinary incontinence, blurred consciousness and oxygen deprivation. His clinic was quite severe. We heard that he had botox done on his armpits, hands and feet. After 3 days, our patient’s complaints started. When we took our patient to the intensive care unit, the most important thing was to find the antitoxin. However, antitoxin is a hard – to find an antidote. We were able to give our patient in the critical period. We treated our patient in the intensive care unit for about 5 days. Today we are discharged from the intensive care unit and followed up in the ward The most important factor to our bringing the patient to the ward was to administer the antitoxin in the critical phase and to administer it early, because you cannot reverse the symptoms if you give the antitoxin after the clinical course has stabilised. Unfortunately, there is no other treatment for this. “We have treated a normally rare case,” he said.
