A new drug that is destroying thousands of people in the US, bending their bodies like a ‘zombie’ and rotting their flesh, has reportedly entered Europe.

The destructive substance known as a drug or street tranquilizer is called xylazine, or the ‘zombie drug’, which during its effect seems to force users to bend their bodies while remaining half-awake in the terrifying position for hours. The DailyMail network writes that she has already entered Britain illegally and killed 11 people.

In the conclusions of a King’s College study, it was discovered that it contained sedatives that are used as anesthetics for large animals.

Also known as ‘tranq’, the substance is so powerful it can put an elephant to sleep and its effect on humans is extreme. Observers say users’ heads drop, their eyes freeze and they stay in unusual positions for hours in a semi-conscious state.

The drug xylazine is a respiratory relaxant anyway, so it lowers the user’s breathing rate, heart rate and blood pressure to dangerous levels.

Combining it with opiate drugs carries the risk of fatal overdose. Among other effects are cracks and skin infections that often do not heal.

Experts say that very rarely users choose to take the ‘tranq’ themselves, but it is secretly given to them by traffickers and organizers. Often the leaders of this murderous traffic mix xylazine with the heroin they sell, or with opium-based drugs like fentanyl, to prolong and intensify their effect.

Researchers in Britain say that this killer sedative has also been found in cannabis-flavored e-cigarettes and sleeping tablets temazepam, the sedative diazepam, and the pain medication ‘codeine’, writes DailyMail.

But official drug content controls for xylazine have not yet been set in Britain, so experts believe it may have infiltrated many other pharmaceutical products.

Earlier, the medication researcher involved in the research for the new drug, Ms. Copeland said xylazine has severe effects on users, who are not notified of the consequences by traffickers.

“This is not a problem only for heroin users, but for the entire population who feel that they are not endangered by the aggressive distribution of xylation on the market by drug traffickers.”

In the severe addiction epidemic in the US, ‘tranq’ has tragically taken hold in urban areas such as Kensington in Philadelphia where desperate footage shows opiate addicts living in tents and injecting themselves in full view of passersby.

The addiction crisis in the US to opiate drugs — those similar to heroin and derived from synthetic poppy or morphine — is already well documented. Fentanyl remains the biggest killer among Americans ages 18 to 45, killing about 200 people a day in the US, according to statistics.

Whereas the new drug ‘Tranq’ is more powerful and cheaper than fentanyl, and has these terrible added effects, which is why it seems to be preferred by high traffickers.

Once a veterinary sedative for horses, cows and wild animals such as elephants, it is now tragically taken by humans in injectable, snorted or swallowed powder form.

US xylazine deaths rose from 12 in January 2019 to 188 people in June 2022, but the number is believed to be higher. Some experts say that if xylazine is made illegal, it could encourage drug cartels to find other alternatives.
