We report on a Swift TOO observation of the neutron star transient SAX J1750.8-2900, detected by INTEGRAL/IBIS on 2011 Feb 10 and Feb 12, during monitoring observations of a sky region centered on RX J1713.7-3946. The reported intensity of ~15 mCrab (ATel#3170) is consistent with a faint outburst. Soon after, the source had declined in a time scale of about one day by at least a factor two, as it was not detected during the Galactic Bulge monitoring observations performed on Feb 13 (ATel#3172).
