Abstract Sodium fluoride is an accessible and frequently used compound that if ingested can cause ventricular dysrhythmias, hemorrhage, and death. We present a case report of a 21-year-old female who presented following an intentional ingestion of a lethal dose of sodium fluoride, developing massive hemorrhage and cardiac arrest. Keywords: sodium fluoride, toxic ingestion, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, dysrhythmia Introduction Sodium fluoride (NaF) is a colorless, odorless powde

Excerpt The National Academy of Medicine (NAM), previously known as the Institute of Medicine, recommends a daily intake of 3 mg of fluoride for women aged 14 to 50. The NAM also notes that most research indicates that a daily intake of 10 mg for 10 or more years is necessary to produce clinical signs of mild skeletal fluorosis; thus, the upper intake limit is regarded as 10 mg/day29. The Food and Drug Administration has also stated that 10 mg/day is the upper intake limit29. While fluoride has
