Rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury due to suicide attempt with tramadol: A rare case report

Abstract

Abstract Although acute kidney injury (AKI) is a very rare complication of tramadol (TR) poisoning, overdose use in recent years should be considered. We present a 21‐year‐old man with metabolic acidosis, seizures, elevated serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK), creatinine, and rhabdomyolysis due to tramadol poisoning.
