Postpartum Eclampsia Unresponsive to Magnesium Sulfate Therapy: An Uncommon Case Report.

Despite advances in obstetric care, postpartum eclampsia continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality among mothers. Although the most common treatment for eclampsia during the postpartum phase is magnesium sulfate (MgSO4), a small percentage of individuals show resistance to this approach. Clinical challenges arise from MgSO4 resistance, which calls for different approaches to care to avoid unfavorable consequences for mothers. In this case study, we provide a thorough clinical description of a 19-year-old primigravida who gave birth at 37 weeks and developed postpartum eclampsia and did not improve with MgSO4 treatment. This case thus highlights the significance of accurate clinical diagnosis of patients and prompt use of alternative therapy modalities. We also discuss possible approaches to treating this uncommon but serious illness.
