A 46-year-old man experienced drug-induced diffuse myocarditis after intentionally overdosing on amlodipine. He presented to the emergency department with mild abdominal pain and was discharged the next day. However, he returned two days later with worsening dyspnea and was diagnosed with myocarditis based on symptoms and investigative findings. He was treated with furosemide and showed improvement in left ventricular function upon discharge. Three months later, a follow-up cardiac MRI showed significant improvement in myocardial inflammation. [Extracted from the article]
