Abstract
We present the case of a 3-month-old boy who accidentally ingested poppers. The patient presented with refractory hypoxemia and compensated circulatory failure associated with severe methemoglobinemia. He made a full recovery after treatment with the specific antidote methylene blue. This is the first report of popper poisoning in a child – a rare case of poisoning in pediatrics.
