Your doctor may occasionally change your dose. Fake valium tablets are now so freely available across Scotland they have become "cheaper than chips", a drug expert has warned. The tablets, bought on the street, have been linked to the deaths of six people in the Toryglen area of Glasgow in the past nine months. In some cases the pills contained etizolam, as a substitute for diazepam. Andrew Horne, from support group Addaction, said deaths occurred on a weekly basis in all parts of Scotland. Mr Horne said the problem of fake valium was not a new one - but the huge quantity of such drugs circulating on the black market had led to rock bottom prices.
The fake valium pills are often coloured with blue food dye to make them look like the genuine valium pills, leaving users with blue lips. Sold on the street, there is no regulation over what they contain. Substitute chemicals are often highly dangerous, especially if combined with other drugs. Mr Horne said fake valium often bore no relation to the genuine tablets which are part of the benzodiazepine family of drugs.
He said many of those who bought fake valium were also using other opioid drugs such as heroin and methodone, a potentially lethal combination. This pill is supplied by Watson Pharmaceuticals.
