Abstract

We present two cases of acute isoniazid poisoning in patients who ingested 7.5 g and 5.0 g of isoniazid respectively, with the intention of committing suicide. Both were admitted unconscious, with ventilatory insufficiency and convulsions. Hepatic dysfunction and peripheral neuropathy were notable complications.
