Abstract
Asthma and cocaine abuse are both common. While cocaine has been associated with numerous pulmonary complications, only smoking cocaine has been clearly linked to the precipitation of life-threatening exacerbations of asthma. We report a case in which nasal insufflation of cocaine ('snorting') triggered a near-fatal asthmatic attack.
