Title Of Article :

شماره ركورد :

Abstract :
Milk alkali syndrome was defined in patients with chronic epigastric pain using calcium containing antacids. The syndrome consists of a triad of hypercalcemia, metabolic alkalosis and acute renal failure following using high doses of calcium containing antacids. The decrease in the frequency of this syndrome with the development of modern ulcer treatment recently started to increase with the consumption of calcium containing medicine for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Milk alkali syndrome may be life threatening because of hypercalcemia and other components. We report here a case with milk alkali syndrome after excessive intake of antacids, presenting with severe hypercalcemia and nonoliguric acute renal failure requiring hemodialysis treatment.
