    This study confirms incidental phencyclidine (PCP) intoxication in a woman living above an illegal drug lab. It highlights the risks of environmental exposure to PCP synthesized via open-vat methods.

    Area of Science:

    • Forensic Toxicology
    • Environmental Health

    Background:

    • Phencyclidine (PCP) synthesis in clandestine laboratories poses potential environmental and health risks.
    • Incidental exposure to illicit drug manufacturing byproducts is a recognized occupational hazard for law enforcement.

    Observation:

    • A case study involving a 65-year-old woman residing above an illegal PCP laboratory.
    • The patient presented with symptoms potentially linked to environmental exposure.

    Findings:

    • A sensitive and specific gas chromatography nitrogen detector (GC2-N) method confirmed the presence of phencyclidine (PCP) in the patient's blood.
    • This provides the first documented evidence of incidental PCP intoxication due to proximity to an open-vat synthesis operation.

    Implications:

    • Demonstrates a novel route of PCP exposure through environmental contamination from illicit drug synthesis.
    • Highlights the need for awareness and protective measures for individuals living near clandestine laboratories.
    • Suggests potential for similar intoxications in law enforcement exposed to confiscated materials.
