Abstract

In a 61-year-old man receiving chronic low-dosage amiodarone an interstitial pneumopathy was observed. In the absence of other causes, we suspected an adverse reaction to amiodarone, not least because of the similarity with histologic findings of cases previously reported. Drug withdrawal and cortisone administration led to resolution of the disease.
