As we planned another gastrointestinal endoscopy, we observed significant tooth decay and periodontal disease in his oral cavity (Fig. 1).
Frequency of alcohol overdose seizures before and after the start of antifungal and dental treatment in a man aged in his 60s with auto-brewery syndrome. A few days from starting treatment, mild seizures were observed. On day 7 of treatment, a mild seizure was observed; 2% miconazole oral gel was discontinued, and amphotericin B syrup and micafungin 100 mg/day was started. Seizures were suppressed after discontinuing oral medication and syrup. The number of Candida colonies was 20 before the start of treatment, but decreased to one on day 10 of treatment.
