DEA warning of xylazine danger

The drug xylazine, which has been linked to an increase in overdoses, has now been seized in 48 of 50 states, the Drug Enforcement Administration announced Monday in an alert. Xylazine, also known as tranq, is often cut with fentanyl. Xylazine is legal as a horse tranquillizer, but it’s not approved for human use. “Xylazine is making the deadliest drug threat our country has ever faced, fentanyl, even deadlier,” DEA boss Anne Milgram said in the alert.
