Twenty-Eight-Day-Long Delirium Tremens.

ABSTRACT

Refractory alcohol withdrawal delirium is uncommon in day-to-day clinical practice. This case report presents a rare case of delirium tremens of unusually long duration that was complicated by the difficulty in tapering down benzodiazepines despite adding midazolam drip as well as phenobarbitone to the management regimen and excluding other possible diagnoses.
