Abstract

A case of a nine-month-old male who ingested cocaine is presented. The rarity of this type of ingestion, as well as the caretaker's denial of the presence of cocaine in the household, made rapid diagnosis of this infant's malady difficult. We present this case to alert physicians to the presentation and treatment of cocaine-intoxicated infants.
