A warning about a new lethal drug here in central Indiana: It’s here.
It’s called the “zombie drug” because it leaves users in a zombie-like state, and it’s made out of a pet sedative or anesthesia called medetomidine. Illegal manufacturers are mixing it with illicit substances, such as fentanyl and heroin, because it’s cheaper to produce.
Hamilton County Coroner Jeff Jellison issued a warning to the public that it’s only a matter of time until it the drug appears in his county. “When you start mixing these drugs together, it’s a fatal combination.”
