Article Synopsis
  • A study conducted at a student-run clinic in Miami found that 55.9% of patients who inject drugs tested positive for xylazine in their urine samples.
  • The presence of xylazine was linked to factors such as unsheltered homelessness, wounds, and positive tests for hepatitis C, fentanyl, and MDMA.
  • The findings highlight the growing prevalence of xylazine in the Southeastern U.S. and emphasize the need for better screening to address associated risks for people who inject drugs.
