Rifampicin is one of the most effective anti-tubercular agents. Among its rare adverse effects, acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is noteworthy. Here, we describe the case history of a 55-year-old female with tubercular lymphadenitis who developed rifampicin induced AIN upon re-exposure and recovered satisfactorily without requiring steroids. Rifampicin induced AIN should be kept in mind when patients present with acute kidney injury as prompt diagnosis and discontinuation of the drug has excellent prognosis.Birdem Med J 2018; 8(3): 257-259

Typical Antipsychotics

Rabbit syndrome (RS) is an antipsychoticinduced rhythmic motion of the mouth/lips resembling the chewing movements of a rabbit. The movement consists of a vertical-only motion, at about 5 Hz, with no involvement of the tongue. Long-term exposure to typical antipsychotics has clearly been associated with RS, but little is known of the risk of RS due to exposure to newer atypical antipsychotics. There have been isolated reports of RS in patients treated with the atypical agents risperidone, aripiprazole, olanzapine, and clozapine. We present the case history of a 44-year old female patient treated for paranoid schizophrenia for 22 years and RS during her last 10-month clozapine treatment. Background information from the literature is also discussed.

History Of

Foreign body impactions in the tooth are common findings in the oral cavity of children because of their frequent habits of placing various objects in their mouth. The present case describes an 11-year-old boy with a foreign object in the maxillary left first molar tooth of which he was unaware. Foreign objects can not only be a source of infection but also be aspirated or ingested by the child. The discovery of foreign objects in the teeth is usually accidental. A detailed case history, consisting of a history of the ordinary placement of the object and clinical and radiographic examinations is necessary to determine the nature, size, and location of the foreign body, as well as the difficulty involved in its retrieval. The foreign object may sometimes fracture inside the tooth during exploration by the parent or child. Such an object may act as a potential source of infection and lead to complications.
