OxyContin (oxycodone hydrochloride controlled release) is a long-acting preparation of oxycodone that is used as an opioid analgesic to treat chronic pain conditions. We report a patient who ingested a massive quantity of OxyContin and had altered mental status, noncardiogenic pulmonary edema, and hypoventilation that proved refractory to naloxone administration. She required mechanical ventilation for 3 days before recovering completely. The severity and length of poisoning was likely related both to the quantity and formulation of the oxycodone ingested.
