Northern Health and First Nations Health Authority are issuing a Drug Alert for the Northern Region. A purple paste/sample sold as ‘down’ has tested positive for fentanyl, benzos, and medetomidine. This sample has been linked to overdose events.

Medetomidine:
• is a non-opioid sedative.
• can cause complex drug poisonings that involve deep and prolonged sedation and very low or no pulse.
• can cause an increase in fatal or non-fatal overdoses.
• overdose symptoms may require multiple doses of naloxone or may not respond to naloxone.
• smoking Medetomidine is not safer than injecting.
