dc.description.abstractHair dye poisoning is not rare, but is an emerging poisoning in India. The main component of super vasmol hair dye causing toxicity is paraphenylenediamine (PPD) and can cause rhabdomyolysis, laryngeal edema, severe metabolic acidosis, acute renal failure (ARF) and myocarditis. There is no specific antidote for hair dye poisoning and treatment is mainly supportive. We report a case of suicidal ingestion of hair dye that presented with angioneurotic edema, rhabdomyolysis and ARF. Our patient improved completely with dialysis and symptomatic management. Various pathogenesis of its complications are also explained in this case report.en_US
