Hydrocodone snorting leading to hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

Lakshmi Kant Pathak1, Vimala Vijayaraghavan1.   

Abstract

We present a case of hypersensitivity pneumonitis caused by intranasal abuse of the prescription narcotic hydrocodone. The patient's clinical course was complicated by acute respiratory failure. A chest radiograph showed diffuse bilateral opacities. The patient was treated with noninvasive ventilation, a high dose of intravenous steroids, and bronchodilators, resulting in improvement of symptoms and radiographic appearance.
