WHAT IS XYLAZINE?
A tranquilizer called xylazine is increasingly being found in the US illicit drug supply and linked to overdose deaths.

Due to its impact on the opioid crisis, fentanyl mixed (adulterated) with xylazine has been declared an emerging threat by the White House’s Office of National Drug Control Policy.
