A patient replaced dietary sodium chloride with sodium bromide after receiving guidance from an AI chatbot. He developed severe bromism, manifested by paranoia, auditory and visual hallucinations, and attempted to escape the hospital. Medical staff placed him under an involuntary psychiatric hold, administered antipsychotics, and used aggressive saline diuresis to lower his bromide level, which peaked at 1,700 mg/L compared with a normal range of 0.9–7.3 mg/L. He remained hospitalized for three weeks. Doctors noted the lack of direct ChatGPT logs and cautioned that bromide salts, while used in cleaning and pool products, are unsafe for human consumption.
