The FDA is investigating reports that animal tranquilizers are mixed with heroin and fentanyl, a horrifying mixture named Tranq Dope. When Xylazine, a tranquilizer used for horses, is combined with fentanyl, the two substances become extremely dangerous and life-threatening.

Tranq Dope can cause complications during overdose because it appears that naloxone, a medication used to revive overdose victims, isn’t effective when used to combat a Tranq Dope.
The FDA reports1 that the symptoms of suffering Xylazine exposure are similar to those one would experience during an opioid overdose. This makes it difficult for doctors and nurses who may not know how much tranquilizer was mixed into their patient’s drugs, putting them at risk more than just taking opioids.
