Abstract

Hair dye poisoning (Paraphenylenediamine-PPD) is a crucial cause of both intentional self-harm and accidental poisoning in the developing world. paraphenylene-diamine is a synthetic chemical that can cause local as well as systemic manifestation, of these are cervicofacial edema, laryngeal edema with stridor, rhabdomyolysis, severe metabolic acidosis and acute renal failure. Intervention earlier at the right time has been shown to improve the outcome. In this article reviewed the epidemiology, clinical features and treatment modalities for hair dye poisoning.
