    The NZ Drug Foundation's offering free testing after a highly synthetic opioid was found in a second fake tablet

    The NZ Drug Foundation's offering free testing after a highly synthetic opioid was found in a second fake tablet


    The drug was found in a blue diazepam tablet in Wellington last month, causing a high alert warning in the dangerous drug warning system.

    Now the substance has also been found in another tablet, that was submitted to a drug-checking clinic in Bay of Plenty.
