Melbourne teenager Bianca Jones has died in hospital in Thailand after drinking tainted alcohol during a backpacking holiday in Laos.
Her death was confirmed by police in Thailand.
Ms Jones and her friend Holly Bowles became critically ill after consuming drinks suspected to have been tainted by methanol at a bar in Vang Vieng in Laos last Tuesday.
The families of Ms Jones and Ms Bowles flew to Thailand and have spent the past few days by their bedsides.
An American and two Danish tourists have also died in the suspected mass poisoning, which left up to 14 people violently ill.

Vang Vieng is a small town north of the Laotian capital Vientiane, which is a popular tourist destination for backpackers.
Ms Jones's family has been at her bedside at a hospital Udon Thani, in Thailand's north near the border with Laos.
In a statement released earlier this week, the family said she and Ms Bowles had been on a "dream getaway".
"They were filled with joy and had such incredible adventures ahead of them," the family said.
Ms Bowles has been hospitalised in Bangkok.
