NCA warns of nitazene-linked 284 deaths in UK, with the synthetic opioid found in recreational drugs and heroin supplies.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) warns that drug use in the UK is increasingly dangerous due to the presence of synthetic opioid nitazene, which has been linked to 284 confirmed deaths since June last year.
Nitazene, which can be up to 500 times stronger than morphine, has been found in recreational drugs such as cocaine, MDMA, and amphetamines as well as cut into heroin supplies.
The NCA is urgently prioritizing the fight against nitazenes amid fears that their arrival could lead to a US-style drug deaths epidemic.
