Abstract
LErişkinlerde az görülen levotiroksin (LT4) intoksikasyonunun çocuklarda görülme sıklığı oldukça fazladır. Bu çalışmada LT4 fazla alımı ile acil servise başvuran dört olguyu sunduk. Sadece bir vakada baş ağrısı, tremor ve konvülziyon gibi belirgin klinik semptomlar görüldü. Tüm vakalar 10 gün boyunca izlendi ve herhangi bir komplikasyon gelişmedi. Akut LT4 intoksikasyonu sonrası 10 gün boyunca tiroid hormon düzeylerinin ölçümü önerilmektedir. Toksik doz net değildir. Adölesanlarda minimal doz aşımı sonrası semptom görülebilirken, bir çok vakada yüksek dozlarda semptom görülmeyebilir. Semptomlar ilaç alımından günler hatta aylar sonra ortaya çıkabilir. Klavuzların önerileri oral alınan LT4 dozuna dayanmaktadır. LT4 intoksikasyonu için tedavi protokollerinin oluşturulması bir gereklidir.

Abstract
Levothyroxine (LT4) intoxication, which is rare in adults, is more common in children. In this study, we presented four cases who presented to the emergency department with excess LT4 intake. Only one case had prominent clinical symptoms such as headache, tremor, and convulsions. All the cases followed up ten days and cases did not develop any complication during this period. It is recommended to measure thyroid hormone levels for 10 days after acute LT4 intoxication. The cut-off of toxic dose is unclear. While symptoms may be seen after minimal overdose in adolescents, symptoms may not be seen at high doses in many cases. Symptoms may appear days or even months after taking the medication. The recommendations of guidelines depend on the quantity of LT4 that has been ingested. It is necessary to establish treatment protocols for LT4 intoxication.
