A woman has been charged with murder following the death of a teenager south-east of Brisbane last month.

Emergency services were called to a home in Daisy Hill, Logan, about 25 kilometres from Brisbane, about 3pm on May 30, where a man and a woman were both found semi-conscious.

An 18-year-old man was taken to hospital where he was put in an induced coma for several days, before he died on June 4.
