A 20-year-old woman died after taking diet pills containing the same stimulant that contributed to the death of London Marathon runner Claire Squires.
Danni Tripp, from Abingdon, died after taking an overdose of diet pills containing DMAA in Oxfordshire after a night out, having split up from her boyfriend three days earlier.
An inquest heard how she took the pills, a caffeine hit equivalent to 40 cups of coffee, but was sent home from a hospital because a doctor failed to recognise how ill she was.
