Abstract

Sir: We read with interest the paper by Burrows, et al. describing a reported fatal drug interaction between oxycodone and clonazepam (Klonopin®) (1). We believe that the classification of this death as a lethal drug interaction between oxycodone and clonazepam is not the most appropriate interpretation of the data presented.
