One in six vapes confiscated at English schools spiked with ‘zombie drug’

Thursday 25th July 2024

Warning of risk of serious harm as synthetic drug spice found in vapes in 28 of 38 schools tested

One in six vapes confiscated in English schools are spiked with the highly addictive “zombie drug” spice, according to research.

Analysis from 38 schools revealed that the synthetic street drug, classified as class B alongside ketamine and GHB, was in nearly 100 devices. The researchers said they believed the substance was being put into vapes marketed as containing cannabis oil.
