The claim is circulating that antidepressants can cause overheating and dehydration. This is a genuine public health message, but it's not so simple: diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, antipsychotics, and some antihistamines may also interact badly with hot weather.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/15/well/live/heat-weather-medication-safety.html (excerpt in a reply)There's even doubt about antidepressants having this effect. A recent paper in eClinicalMedicine looked at all the studies they could find and concluded that there wasn't evidence of antidepressants causing overheating in hot weather - though some other medicines do.
"Current evidence supports strong anticholinergics, non-selective beta-blockers, adrenaline, and anti-Parkinson’s agents impairing thermoregulation during heat stress ... physicians should interpret with caution conventional public health messaging related to the thermoregulatory effects of some drugs (e.g., antidepressants) during hot weather."

CW: harm reduction
Zenes from China are spreading in Europe, and more potent than #fentanyl. The thing is that first responders are not used to strong #opioid #overdose nor detected by most at home tests. They're buyable as #researchchemicals or #designerdrugs way too easily, and very cheap, so remorseless sellers press them into pills.
#oxycodon is expensive: it can go up to around 100e a pill for the 80mg/160mg ones on the #darkweb. Percs are sold only in the US #opioids #harmreduction #drugsafety -
CW: Fake pill warning, pls share
NOS, a Dutch news outlet, reported death linked to fake pills, "pressed" "pressies’ sold as #oxycodone but containing a deadly #zene analogue, stronger than fent, from China. These have been known to cause death in the UK a few years ago and were seen in France precovid. Beware - oxy is 1€/mg, pills should be in original packaging, percs don't exist here.
