Abstract
The occurrence of drug-containing gallstones is not often observed. To our knowledge, three drugs have so far been incriminated-ceftriaxone, glaphenine, and dipyridamole. This report presents the case of an 85- year-old woman who developed a recurrent drug-containing gallstone cau sed by dipyridamole eighteen months after a previous stone had been re moved endoscopically.
