MARTIN COUNTY, Fla. — The Martin County Sheriff’s Office is reporting the first signs of the drug xylazine in the area.

MCSO says the deadly drug has been plaguing the nation and it is resistant to the overdose reversal tool known as Narcan.

“You know you’re costing somebody their life, you’re costing somebody their kid,” said John Nelson, the founder of Familiesrecover.org.

MCSO says xylazine, or tranq, was found mixed with fentanyl after lab results from an arrest in 2022.

“You know you’re costing somebody their life, you’re costing somebody their kid,” said John Nelson, the founder of Familiesrecover.org.

MCSO says xylazine, or tranq, was found mixed with fentanyl after lab results from an arrest in 2022.

“Ryan passed away just over 4 years ago,” said Ellen Isaacs, who battled her own addiction, has become an advocate against opioids since the loss of her son. “It was a fentanyl overdose, and he struggled with addiction for 17 years.”

She added: “They call it tranq because it is a tranquilizer for horses. That’s where they came up with the name tranq. And it’s eating away with the kids’ skin and it’s eating away all the way down to the muscle, the bone and some people have had to have their limbs removed.”

The drug is not approved for use by humans.
