TY - JOUR PY - 1981// TI - Secondhand cigarette smoke as a cause of chronic carbon monoxide poisoning JO - Postgraduate medicine A1 - Kachulis, C. J. SP - 77 EP - 79 VL - 70 IS - 1 N2 - Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning in a nonsmoking patient continued for several years until her husband stopped smoking cigarettes near her. Carbon monoxide poisoning should be considered in non-smokers when characteristic toxic symptoms occur (ie, lethargy, irritability, headache, blurred vision, slowed reaction time, and decreased concentration). Toxicity may develop simply from breathing second-hand smoke.
