In a recent study it was found that 10% of patients admitted to a psychiatric hospital had detectable blood bromide levels, and 2% were considered to have clinically significant bromism (1). For this latter group prolonged hospitalization is required, and death occurs in rare instances. In patients with severe toxic manifestations numerous means of therapy have been used, including salt loading (2), diuretics (3), gastric aspiration (4), and hemodialysis (5, 6).
