Treatment of Theophylline Poisoning
Keyword(s):
In Reply.— We appreciate the comments of Strauss and Modanlou on the role of multiple-dose activated charcoal in the treatment of infants with severe theophylline intoxication. We are aware of both studies which they have published in this area and have also used multiple-dose charcoal in neonates.1-3 The infant in our case report was not considered a candidate for multiple-dose activated charcoal because of the absence of bowel sounds. He was also not a candidate for hemodialysis or hemoperfusion because of problems with vascular access which resulted from his complex congenital heart disease (including inferior vena cava occlusion and inaccessible subclavian veins).
