Respiratory depression due to unsuspected narcotic ingestion treated with naloxone.

D A Curnock.   

Abstract

Two patients are presented with respiratory depression for which no cause was apparent. Both had ingested narcotics without the parents' knowledge. Narcotic ingestion should be suspected if signs of respiratory failure with constricted pupils are present, and a diagnostic test with naloxone should be performed.
