Abstract

This case study describes an Indian male patient's death caused by paraquat after oral consumption. A 20-year-old male patient attended the emergency department. He had a major complaint of stomach disorders, vomiting, fatigue, and hypothermia. It was confirmed that he was transferred from a nearby hospital after evaluating the situation. It was reported that paraquat poison had a systemic effect, and during the healing process, he was subject to multiple dialysis. This study will help doctors and clinicians to respond quickly to paraquat poisoning and aid in the early recovery and maintenance of poisoning.
