Deadly Animal Sedative Continues to Affect Individuals and Increase Drug Overdose Deaths Despite Lack of Approval for Human Use
A deadly animal sedative called xylazine continued to negatively affect individuals and increase the number of drug overdose deaths as many people depend on the animal sedative despite the lack of approval for human use.
According to a report published in NBC News, the deadly animal sedative can negatively affect individuals’ health due to the wrong uses and purposes, mainly because it’s created for large animals, which can eventually cause health problems, including low heart rate and amnesia after using the deadly animal sedative.
Health experts also claimed that the animal sedative can cause wounds to users or abusers that can lead to amputations of the affected parts of the body, especially if they are combined with other drugs, making it more difficult for them to treat individuals who are suffering from addiction to the deadly animal sedative.
FDA and Other Officials Demands Pharmacies to Stop Importing Deadly Animal Sedative in US
Following the increasing cases of drug overdose deaths, the Food and Drug Administration and other officials demanded pharmacies stop importing the deadly animal sedative into the United States due to its negative impacts.
However, there are still suppliers from various countries that immediately ship the animal sedative even without presenting a prescription for availing the illegal drugs, Axios reported.
