Arbitrarily Herbal Treatments to Gain Weight as the Potential Cause of Pulmonary Embolism and Renal damage: A Case Report

Pulmonary embolism is caused by the formation of clots in the pulmonary arteries. This study is a case report to introduce a young woman who suffered a pulmonary embolism and kidney damage after consuming Fershteh fattening capsules. We report a ۳۲-year-old woman who is referred to the emergency ward and suffers from weakness, lethargy, diarrhea, and vomiting. Due to the increase in renal and potassium markers, the patient is dialyzed urgently but suffers from shortness of breath, tachypnea, and tachycardia. A nuclear lung scan was performed after cardiac echocardiography and high pulmonary artery pressure, and pulmonary embolism was confirmed. After eight days, thrombosis was treated with intravenous heparin and discharged with oral warfarin. Arbitrary consumption of drugs without permission and without consulting a doctor can cause adverse effects on people.
