Warning: Dangerous Substances Misrepresented as Popular Drugs in Victoria
AI Summary
In Victoria, a wave of dangerous substances is being sold under the guise of popular recreational drugs. Users are unknowingly consuming 3-Hydroxy-PCP, synthetic cathinones, and 25C-NBOMe, which pose severe health risks. Emergency departments have reported a spike in cases linked to these substances, with symptoms ranging from hallucinations to unconsciousness.
