Abstract



Bitkisel
ilaçların kullanılmasındaki artış beraberinde hayatı tehdit eden birçok komplikasyonların
ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Panax yıllardır bir çok hastalığa karşı iyi
geldiği, fiziksel performansı arttırdığı düşüncesiyle bir adaptojen olarak
kullanılmaktadır. Yabancı kaynaklarda ginsenglere karşı gelişen allerji
vakaları bildirilmiştir. Bu yazıda Panax kullanan bir hastada gelişen allerji
olgusu sunuldu. 60 yaşında solunum sıkıntısı, hipotansiyon, şuur kaybı ve yüzde
şişlik şikâyetleri ile acil servise getirilen hasta anaflaktik şok
tablosundaydı. Hastanın Panax adlı bitkisel ilacı kullandığı öğrenildi. Hastaya
müdahale edildikten sonra yoğun bakım ünitesine alınarak takip tedavisine
başlandı. Hasta kliniği düzeldikten sonra servise çıkışı yapıldı. Tedavi
sonrası hasta bilgilendirilerek taburcu edildi.
