People who believe they are taking sedatives are consuming completely different drugs

Tablets used to treat Parkinson’s disease have being packaged as Xanax sedatives and smuggled into the Republic for sale on the black market, the director general of Forensic ScienceChris Enright told The Irish Times that in recent months there had been four major seizures of counterfeit Xanax. Each involved tens of thousands of tablets packaged as Xanax but were instead tablets used to treat Parkinson’s disease, hayfever and nausea.

also said there had been a 30 per cent increase in forensic samples related to sex crimes being sent to FSI for testing since the start of this year. Reported sex crime has increased by 62 per cent since 2014, with most of that increase in the past two years. Mr Enright made his remarks on the same day Forensic Science Ireland’s annual report for 2018 was published.
