Xylazine: Separating Fact from Fiction About the So-Called 'Zombie Drug

 Xylazine: The Dangerous "Zombie Drug"

I READ MANY NEWS ARTICLES COURTING PEOPLE TURNING INTO ZOMBIES DUE TO THE INTAKE OF DRUGS(Xylazine). SO, I GOT MANY QUESTIONS AND HOW THAT DRUG WORK AND IS THAR REALLY A ZOMBIE THING OR JUST THE MEDIA'S CATCHY WORDS, 

 some videos here and there getting around on social media show people behaving strangely in the USA. 

First of all what is that Xylazine?

Zombie drugs Xylazine is a veterinary sedative and analgesic used to treat animals this belongs to the class of drugs called alpha-2 adrenergic agonists, which work by stimulating certain receptors in the brain and spinal cord to produce sedative and analgesic effects, and it is not safe for humans because the overdose of this drug cannot be treated by the naloxone, or Narcan which is usually used to reverse the overdosage of opioids (Naloxone is an important drug against overdosage but it is not a substitute for addiction treatment)and it is also used as an adulterant to increase their potency or weight of drugs like cocaine and heroin.

THIS Drug is approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for veterinary purposes only. it is not an opioid. this is also a cheap drug

what are the symptoms  of xylazine

xylazine is associated with, Some of the symptoms including dry mouth, drowsiness, high blood pressure and rapid heartbeat, which may be followed by low blood pressure and slow heartbeat. Other symptoms can include high blood sugar, slow heart rate, low body temperature, unconsciousness, difficulty breathing 

Overdoses associated with xylazine may be more difficult to identify in clinical, as they often appear similar to opioid overdoses and may not be included in routine drug screening tests Xylazine has no approved antidote for human use.

then the conclusion of the term zombie drug is that the drug doesn't convert people into actual zombies which are shown in movies or fiction but if they are in a zombie-like state. The term may be used by the media or individuals to sensationalize.
