A Case of Antipsychiatry Polypill Overdose (200 Tablets) Successfully Treated With Hemodialysis: A Serious Encounter.

Polypharmacy refers to using and consuming multiple drugs as part of the treatment for a disease or disorder. Polypharmacy can lead to an increase in the number of drug overdose emergencies. Age-related metabolic changes and reduced drug clearance in older adults can result in severe drug reactions and other clinical consequences, which can sometimes be fatal, raising concerns about the safety of polypharmacy. We discuss a case of a 50-year-old female who presented to us in a drowsy state after an antipsychiatry (antipsychotic and antidepressant) polypill overdose with 200 tablets and was successfully treated with hemodialysis. This case report highlights that prompt treatment initiation based on the patient's clinical status and drug serum levels is crucial to achieving the best outcomes.
