A coroner has slammed the dangers of being able to buy prescription drugs online after a nurse accidentally took a fatal overdose of codeine she bought over the internet without telling her GP.
Mother-of-two Katie Emma Corrigan, 38, was addicted to the painkiller and was struck off in 2018 after forging prescriptions to obtain extra medication.
She was found dead in her home in St Erth, Cornwall, on August 9 last year with fatal levels of the painkiller in her system.
A coroner concluded that she died a drug-related death and has pledged to write a rare Prevention of Future Deaths report to highlight the dangers of buying prescription medication online.
