Acute amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity following lung resection

Alexander Edmund Handschin et al. Respiration. 2003 May-Jun.

Abstract

Amiodarone-induced pulmonary toxicity has been described mostly in patients receiving large doses of the drug over prolonged periods. In this report, we describe the early onset of acute pulmonary toxicity leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome after a short course of amiodarone treatment following middle-lobe non-small-cell lung cancer resection.
