A SPATE OF drug overdoses in Cork and Dublin in recent weeks has led the HSE to warn heroin users about a dangerous class of drug being sold as heroin.
Fentanyls are 600 times more powerful than morphine and the HSE says that it may be sold as ‘designer’ fentanyl or ‘synthetic’ heroin.
Health officials say that five deaths are being investigated in Ireland where fentanyl is implicated. It’s believed that in these fatal cases the drug had been either smoked or injected by users.
