dc.description.abstractAlthough the foremost encountered differential diagnosis in patients with neurological complaints in the emergency departments (ED) are organic nervous system diseases and psychiatric disorders, other metabolic disturbances and drug related adverse effects shall be considered as well. We present a 65 year old female patient who attended to our ED with visual hallucinations such as orange colored wallpaper, boiling water on the ground and wave patterns for the last 3 hours. Past medical history was clear for all but chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Neuropsychiatric examination revealed a fully oriented, neurologically intact patient. After further questioning, we learned that the patient was on moxifloxacin 400 mg PO for two days and the symptoms started following the first dose of moxifloxacin. Laboratory and radiological work up including brain CT showed no pathognomonic findings. The patient, whose complaints totally resolved at the 6th hour of her follow-up in the ED was discharged with the diagnosis of Moxifloxacin related visual hallucinations with relevant modifications on her antibacterial treatment. Telephone follow-up 24 hours later revealed that our patient was symptom free.en_US
