H1N1 pneumonitis associated with long-term non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug abuse. This case series discusses two similar presentations of H1N1 influenza in young patients with a background history of long-term non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) abuse. Both patients presented with type 1 respiratory failure requiring intensive care unit admission and subsequent organ support. This report reviews the immunosuppressive effects of long-term NSAID use and highlights a potential link to the significant morbidity seen.
