Researchers from UCLA and NIST found that bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl) sebacate (BTMPS) is suddenly prevalent in illegal drugs, alarming health officials.
The data revealed a dramatic shift; BTMPS appeared in approximately 25% of drug samples tested, sometimes exceeding the amounts of fentanyl within those samples.
Morgan Godvin pointed out that this situation is unprecedented and suggested that tens of thousands of fentanyl users may have been exposed to harmful levels of BTMPS.
The research indicates a concerning trend regarding drug safety, making it crucial for public health responses to adapt to these changes in the drug supply.
