ABSTRACT
Colchicine is commonly used as part of the treatment of acute and recurrent pericarditis. Neuromyopathy is a well-known, but probably underreported, side effect of colchicine. Here we present a unique case of a 56-year-old woman with recurrent episodes of colchicine-induced neuromyopathy over many years. (Level of Difficulty Beginner.).
