A 49-year-old male was admitted following a house fire that resulted in burns to 20 % of his total body surface area. Empiric hydroxocobalamin was given for presumed cyanide poisoning secondary to smoke inhalation. Plasma and urine from the patient were noted to have an intense dark red/purple hue (Fig. 1).
