Abstract
Currently, the number of novel psychoactive substances (NPS) has significantly increased. Recent reports on the abuse of synthetic cathinones focus on serious physical and psychological risks resulting from their consumption, thereby emphasising that a growing use of these drugs might constitute an important public health. Case report: A young man presented to the emergency department with acute designer drug intoxication complicated with severe respiratory failure. Why should an emergency physician be aware of this? We observe a growing use of NPS among young people. Further studies describing clinical manifestations of intoxication and toxicity of synthetic cathinones and treatment guidelines are still needed.
