Abstract
The most recent ‘Drug-related Deaths in the UK’ Annual Report (Jan-Dec 2009) served to reinforce that substance misuse remains a serious problem in the UK, with 2,182 notifications of drug-related deaths, representing an overall increase of 11.8% over the 2008 figures (although the increase in reporting must also be taken into account). Importantly, despite the emergence of GBL and GHB, opioids/opiates continue to be, by far, the principal substance implicated in these deaths. This report details a successful approach to a case of SPM-PRX overdose (an opioid), unique given the absence of any existing case reports involving this substance.
