Abstract
Calcium Channel blocker (CCB) poisoning is on rise due to increased use for the number of cardiovascular diseases. CCB poisoning either accidental or intentional can be lethal. Standard approaches for the management of CCB overdose like stomach wash, IV fluids, resuscitation, administration of calcium gluconate, atropine, Hyper insulinimeia–Euglycemia (HIE) therapy are given. We report a case of CCB toxicity who improved after administration of HIE therapy.
