Abstract: | We present the clinical case of a patient who was admitted to the intensive care ward with severe central nervous system symptoms and cardiovascular collapse within a week of starting sulphasalazine; in the absence of any other diagnosis, these symptoms were felt to be due to a previously unreported adverse effect of sulphasalazine. |
