A 19-year-old died in hospital due to the "acute toxic effects of MDMA", a coroner has found.
The inquest heard that Joelle Welsh went out with her friends to a Bristol nightclub on July 24 last year, where she consumed an unknown quantity of the class A drug. She then became acutely unwell, the inquest was told, and she was taken to the Bristol Royal Infirmary at 4am on July 25.
The student was admitted to the ICU, but her condition deteriorated and she died in the city centre hospital that same day. A post-mortem examination confirmed her death was due to the acute toxic effects of MDMA.
