Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Amphetamine is one of the most common substances abused in pregnancy and one of the most potent sympathomimetic amines with respect to stimulatory effects on the central nervous system. I present a case of an amphetamine abusing parturient who developed postpartum convulsions and acute hemodynamic instability initially mistaken for eclampsia.
