Opioid with ‘unexpected strength’ found in West Hants

The province’s health authority is warning of an opioid with “unexpected strength” found in the Windsor area.

Nova Scotia Heath says they were informed by community partners that there were unexpected reactions to an opioid, pink in colour in Windsor/West Hants.

This follows another drug alert from the health authority from last month about a powerful opioid found in Nova Scotia for the first time.

It was called N-Pyrrolidino Metonitazene and was found in Amherst.
