Fatal interaction between thiamylal sodium and a proprietary antidiarrheal preparation in the dog.

A drug interaction involving thiamylal sodium and a proprietary antidiarrheal preparation caused fatal ventricular fibrillation in a dog. Trials involving 4 dogs were conducted to recreate the interaction, and 1 of the 4 dogs died after ventricular fibrillation developed. The nature of the interaction was hypothesized to be mediated through the anticholinergic drug diphemanil methylsulfate, producing an autonomic imbalance.
