The Flesh-Eating Drug Infecting The Nation
According to WebMD, Xylazine, commonly known as “tranq,” is a non-opioid sedative analgesic medication that’s largely mixed into (adulterated) and used as an additive with other opioid substances like heroin, fentanyl, and cocaine. Blending tranq helps to bulk up and boost or mimic the effects of these drugs. As a matter of fact, tranq is now found in up to 15% of fentanyl tests.
But exposure to this mix of chemicals can have dangerous, potentially life-threatening effects on your health. It can cause such horrific wounds (necrotic skin ulcers) on your skin that it’s being dubbed a “zombie drug.”
Tranq was first made in 1962 by Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals. It’s designed to be used as a central nervous system depressant. Veterinarians regularly use it to tranquilize (sedate), relieve pain, or as a muscle relaxant for animals like dogs, cats, and horses. It’s not FDA-approved for use in humans.
It’s typically sold as a clear liquid. In animals, the drugs kick into effect in just a few minutes and can last up to 4 hours. It’s sold under the brand name Anased, Chanazine, Rompun, and Sedazine.
Tranq found on the streets is largely mixed with heroin, fentanyl, or cocaine to enhance or modify the drug’s effects. It causes a similar “high” or euphoric feeling as opioids do.
When it’s mixed mostly with heroin and cocaine, the drug is called ”speedball.” Besides tranq or “zombie dope,” it’s referred to by other street names in the U.S. like “tranq dope” or “sleep cut.” In Puerto Rico, where xylazine has been known to be a part of the opioid supply since the early 2000s, it’s called “anestecia de caballo” or horse anesthesia.
