Stroke-like syndrome after gold sodium thiomalate induced vasomotor reaction. 1984

H M Prupas

Vasomotor reactions after gold sodium thiomalate are well recognized. When they do occur they are rarely a clinical problem. We describe a 50-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis in whom a severe postinjection vasomotor reaction was associated with a cerebral vascular accident.

D006052	Gold Sodium Thiomalate	A variable mixture of the mono- and disodium salts of gold thiomalic acid used mainly for its anti-inflammatory action in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. It is most effective in active progressive rheumatoid arthritis and of little or no value in the presence of extensive deformities or in the treatment of other forms of arthritis.
