RESUMEN

Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) is a common constituent of rubbing alcohol, household cleaning agents, and antiseptic agents. Ingestion of IPA usually leads to self-resolving mild symptoms in most cases but can result in severe symptoms, including central nervous system depression or hemodynamic instability. Treatment is mainly supportive, and hemodialysis is generally reserved for severe intoxication. Limited data are available on the use of hemodialysis to treat IPA intoxication. We are presenting a case of accidental ingestion of IPA in an elderly female with dementia leading to severe intoxication requiring hemodialysis at relatively non-toxic serum levels of IPA. The patient had a prompt recovery without any post-procedural or hospital-acquired complications.
