Abstract
Open AccessValidamycin ingestion is a rare encounter in emergency settings. There is no specific antidote, with management being largely symptomatic. Overzealous treatment and referral to higher centers are not necessary, as consumption of even large doses of Validamycin is non-toxic to humans; rather, addressing the intention behind ingestion is more important.
