TL;DR: No cases of acute metformin overdose meeting the study's inclusion criteria were found in which patients with a nadir serum pH greater than 6.9, peak serum lactate concentrations less than 25 mmol/L, or peak serum metformins less than 50 microg/mL died.

TL;DR: This case series describes several patients with cardiac conduction abnormalities and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias temporally related to loperamide abuse, with the recent efforts to restrict the diversion of prescription opioids, increasing abuse of lopersamide as an opioid substitute may be seen.
