| pubmed-article:10676107 | pubmed:abstractText | The Authors discuss a case of amiodarone pulmonary toxicity, with simultaneous alveolar and interstitial infiltrates, in a female patient 75 years old, who took the drug for 6 months at a low dosage (200 mg/daily for 5 days a week). It is outlined that the diagnosis can be achieved only by exclusion of other aetiologies, since clinical and diagnostic features are not pathognomonic for such disease. The withdrawal of the drug and the administration of the steroid therapy determined a fast improvement of the clinical and radiological appearance. | lld:pubmed |
