Q&A column

Feburary 2024
Q. In a case of suspected drug-related death, how specific can an autopsy be in identifying the drug(s) that might have caused the person’s death and the amount of drugs present? For example, can a toxicology report say a person’s death was caused by a fake oxycodone pill containing fentanyl? Read answer.

Q. A nephrology patient who has been treated with vitamin D2 for several years contacted our laboratory to find out why their 25-hydroxyvitamin D level of 60 ng/mL is now considered elevated when before it was within the normal range. How can we explain this? Read answer.
