INDIANAPOLIS — Officials are warning about a dangerous sedative, called medetomidine, that’s being found in drugs across Marion County.
The drug is believed to be stronger than xylazine. Both are used by veterinarians and are not approved by the FDA for human use.DEA Assistant Special Agent in Charge Michael Gannon says the Marion County Public Health Department was able to identify the drug in syringes. “When drugs come into our country and get here in the streets of Indianapolis, they can exchange hands five, six, seven or eight times. Each time it exchanges hands, you’re at the mercy of whoever has that drug,” Gannon said. “We’re going to be paying significant attention to this.”
