Emergency department overcrowding combined with shortage of experienced and knowledgeable healthcare staff may lead to fatal, albeit rare, malpractice cases in developing countries. We report herein a patient with cardiac arrest as a result of inadvertent intravenous injection of hydrotalcite, an orally administered anti-acid medication. Our literature search revealed no previous cases of cardiac arrest as a result of intravenous (IV) administration of hydrotalcite.
