The current heroin drought has significant potential to cause death and serious injury for users, a drugs agency has warned.
The Irish Needle Exchange Forum (INEF) said there were reports more people were injecting heroin because the quality of the drug was so poor it could not be smoked. As reported in the Irish Examiner last Tuesday, voluntary drug agencies and HSE experts in Dublin and Cork reported a severe heroin shortage for at least the last four weeks.
