Summary
Intravenous lipid emulsion is an established, effective treatment for local anesthetic
systemic toxicity. It is also efficacious in animal models of severe cardiotoxicity caused by
a number of other medications. Recent case reports of successful resuscitation suggest the
efficacy of lipid emulsion infusion for treating non-local anesthetic overdoses across a wide
spectrum of drugs. The present study will focus on the potential role of intravenous lipid
emulsion as an adjuvant therapy in pesticides toxicity.
