A cluster of toxic reactions among children inadvertently given excessive doses of rifampin for chemoprophylaxis of invasive Haemophilus influenzae disease in a day-care center was investigated. In all 19 children, who received five times the therapeutic dose of rifampin, dramatic adverse reactions developed. A striking, "glowing" red discoloration of the skin and facial or periorbital edema were found to be the hallmarks of rifampin toxicity. These clinical signs of acute toxicity contrast sharply with the adverse side effects of rifampin reported with therapeutic doses.

Purpose: The aim of this study to investigate the effect of bromelain-arnica gel combination on periorbital edema and ecchymosis seen after open septorhinoplasty. Methods: Sixty patients who performed open septorhinoplasty with osteotomies were included to the study. These patients were allocated into two groups: in group 1, 30 patients as control and in group 2, 30 patients as study group who were treated with topical bromelain-arnica gel after surgery. Scoring of eyelid edema and peroirbital ecchymosis were evaluated on the first, third and seventh postoperative days using scale of 0 to 4 used by observers. Results: We observed that the administration of topical bromelain-arnica gel after surgery was effective clinically and statistically in decreasing the score of both edema and ecchymosis in open septorhinoplasty with ostetomies. In group 2 patients, periorbital edema and ecchymosis scores were significantly lower compared to control group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Our results support that topical administration of bromelain and arnica gel combination provided both clinically and statistically significant reduction in periorbital edema and ecchymosis following septorhinoplasty.
