This drug has been at­trib­uted to caus­ing se­vere ad­verse (phys­i­cal and men­tal) be­hav­iour­al re­ac­tions in users.

In a state­ment is­sued to­day, Min­is­ter Young is ad­vis­ing that the chem­i­cal com­po­si­tion of this drug has not yet been ver­i­fied by the Trinidad and To­ba­go Foren­sic Sci­ence Cen­tre (TTF­SC), but says in­ves­ti­ga­tions are un­der­way.

The state­ment says that the Min­istry of Na­tion­al Se­cu­ri­ty con­tin­ues to urge the pub­lic to avoid the use of any sub­stances with psy­choac­tive prop­er­ties, in the in­ter­est of their health, safe­ty and well­be­ing.
