Abstract

The Best Evidence Topic Reports series is intended to provide evidence-based answers to clinical questions. The recent best evidence topic report by Boyd1 concluded that there is not enough evidence to support the use of glucagon in b blocker overdose. However, clinical toxicology is an area in which the evidence basis is often lacking and one therefore needs to rely on a combination of practical experience, case reports and assessment of biological plausibility
