Abstract

Government figures suggest that there has been an increase in the number of young people using cocaine. Emergency and minor injury unit nurses are therefore increasingly likely to care for these people. This article describes the presenting symptoms and management of a patient who had an adverse reaction to cocaine, briefly examines the issues of 'adolescent consent' and discusses cocaine use among young people.
