Question for those of you living in a country where marijuana is legal. What are the positive sides, what are the negatives?
If you could go back in time, would you vote for legalising again? Does it affect the country’s illegal drug business , more/less?
Tranq, also known as Xylazine, specifically causes flesh wounds.
“A high prevalence of abscesses and painful skin ulcers [13] developed over various body parts irrespective of the IV injection site was reported. The mechanism is thought to be mediated by its direct vasoconstricting effect on local blood vessels and resultant decreased skin perfusion [6]. In addition to vasoconstriction, it causes hypotension, bradycardia, and respiratory depression, leading to lower tissue oxygenation in the skin [14]. Thus, chronic use of xylazine can progress the vasoconstriction and skin oxygenation deficit, leading to severe soft tissue infections, including abscesses, cellulitis, and skin ulceration. Decreased perfusion also leads to impaired healing of wounds and a higher chance of infection of these ulcers [15].”

Again, drug users do not seek these drugs. Drug dealers seek them because stronger drugs are easier to smuggle in smaller amounts for the same street value as a much larger quantity of heroin.
