1 Dettol liquid (chloroxylenol 4.8%, pine oil, isopropyl alcohol), a household disinfectant, has a corrosive action on the gastrointestinal mucosa when swallowed. The inci dence of upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage and gastro scopic findings following Dettol poisoning was studied in 89 patients. 2 Five patients (5.6%) developed minor haematemesis, in the form of coffee-coloured or blood-stained vomitus. One patient had a gastroscopy performed on the day after admission, showing signs of chemical burns in the oesoph agus and stomach. Gastroscopy was performed in one other patient on day 11 to rule out oesophageal stricture; the patient was normal. All patients completely recovered. 3 The data from this study suggest that upper gastroin testinal haemorrhage following Dettol poisoning tends to be mild and self-limiting. Gastroscopy, which may increase the risk of aspiration in patients with impaired consciousness, is not required unless other causes of gas trointestinal bleeding are suspected.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs frequently exert toxic effects on the upper gastrointestinal mucosa. However, inflammation and ulcerations in the colon secondary to these agents have been increasingly recognized in recent years. A patient presenting with abdominal pain, weight loss and diarrhea while taking a slow release form of diclofenac sodium (Voltaren SR; Ciba-Geigy) is described. Extensive ulcerations in the right colon and healing upon discontinuation of the drug are documented by colonoscopy.
