PG  - 995-6
AB  - Ingestion of 3,4-methylene dioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), commonly known as 
      "Ecstasy", can produce toxicity that is characterised by hyperthermia, 
      coagulopathy, rhabdomyolysis and renal failure. We report a fatality associated 
      with MDMA ingestion and briefly review the current literature on MDMA-induced 
      hyperthermia.
