| Abstract | A 71-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease stage IV, primary hypothyroidism and osteoarthritis, whose prescribed treatment included miglitol 50 mg thrice daily with the first bite of meals, reported that she suffered visual hallucinations while taking miglitol, which resolved within a few days of stopping the drug. When she resumed miglitol, hallucinations recurred within a few days and again resolved within a few days of stopping the drug. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of hallucinations associated with the use of an -glucosidase inhibitor and highlights a previously unappreciated risk associated with the use of this generally quite benign drug class. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
