Which Toxins are Commonly Associated with Volume Overload?
Several substances are known to cause volume overload when ingested or absorbed:
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs): These can cause renal impairment, leading to fluid retention. Opioids: High doses can result in fluid retention due to their effects on ADH. Ecstasy (MDMA): Users often consume large volumes of water, risking hyponatremia and volume overload.
