Descrição: [Case] 42-year-old woman, She was taken to the emergency department after consuming 400 tablets to commit suicide. [Condition] Consciousness level in GCS was E1V1M1 ; a BMI of 33 kg/m2. [Clinical course] Despite improvements in the consciousness level on Day 9, her GCS score once again declined to E1V1M1 on Day 12. She had clear consciousness by Day 14. [Discussion] The prolonged consciousness disorder was due to drug redistribution from fat tissue. Therefore, the patient was considered suitable for intravenous lipid emulsion therapy. [Conclusion] Intravenous lipid emulsion therapy can be a treatment option for patients experiencing toxicity from highly lipophilic drugs.
