Acute methoxetamine and amphetamine poisoning with fatal outcome: A case report

International Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health January 1, 2014 Marek Wiergowski, Jacek Anand, Maciej Krzyżanowski et al.

A 31-year-old man died after taking methoxetamine (MXE) and amphetamine recreationally. He arrived at the hospital in a deep coma with respiratory failure, hyperthermia, seizures, and signs of organ damage. Despite intensive care, he died four weeks later from multi-organ failure. Blood tests showed MXE at a toxic level (0.32 μg/ml) and amphetamine at a non-toxic level (0.06 μg/ml). Amphetamine was also found in his hair, suggesting prior use. The combination likely caused a severe, adverse interaction.
