Özet
3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), popularly known as "ecstasy", is a synthetic, psychoactive drug. MDMA has been reported to have several severe adverse effects including rhabdomyolysis, acute renal failure, liver failure and even sudden death. Herein, we present the case of a young man who presented with severe rhabdomyolysis and renal failure after taking 2 ecstasy pills. The patient initially received supportive care but he eventually needed hemodialysis.
