Deliberate Fingolimod Overdose Presenting with Delayed Hypotension and Bradycardia Responsive to Atropine

摘要

IntroductionFingolimod is an immunomodulating agent used in multiple sclerosis (MS). It is a sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor agonist prescribed for relapsing forms of MS to delay onset of physical disability. As fingolimod is known to cause first-dose bradycardia, telemetry is recommended for the first 6 h post-dose. We present the first reported case of deliberate fingolimod overdose requiring atropine administration for bradycardia and hemodynamic instability.
