[Suicide attempt by means of phenobarbital overdose. Effective treatment with continuous veno-venous hemodialysis].
A 68-year-old woman tried to commit suicide using phenobarbital, which was initially prescribed for her dog that suffered from seizures. At admission she was unconscious and ventilated. Five days of intensive care therapy did not improve her state of consciousness.

Detailed history taking and well-timed indication for dialysis were crucial.
