Abstract
Methanol poisoning is often caused by young people (Teenagers) consuming homemade alcohol. The most common endocrine condition in young people, on the other hand, is diabetes, and DKA is a common cause of hospital admissions in this age group. Several factors have been identified as predisposing factors in the development of DKA, including opioid overdose and toxic exposure. The clinical and laboratory symptoms of a patient with DKA after methanol poisoning were examined in this study. 1 day after consuming home-made alcohol at a party, a 15-year-old male patient was admitted to MTC with nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. On the same day, he complained of blurred vision in the afternoon. His father had insulin-dependent diabetes, and his mother had iron deficiency anaemia, which she treated with ferrous sulphate. The patient had an attack of generalised tonic-clonic seizures before being sent to the hospital. The patient presented with localised painful stimulations, groans and non-reactive to light, as well as mydriatic pupils. He had an acetone taste on his breath as well. The systolic/diastolic blood pressure was 100/80 mmHg, the axillary temperature was 37°C, the respiratory rate was 30 minutes per minute, and the pulse rate was 130 minutes per minute. Physicians must be aware of the similarities in symptoms and signs between DKA and methanol poisoning, and adequate diagnostic tests must be conducted in suspicious cases. Since there are several interactions between the treatment strategies for these common conditions, careful monitoring is advised
