What is 'Zombie Drug' and the truth behind the myths?

Often called the 'zombie drug', xylazine is not an opioid but a veterinary sedative. It can slow breathing, cause deep sleep and even lead to serious wounds. Many believe it turns people into 'zombies', but that is misleading. Its effects are medical, not supernatural. The real danger is hidden use in drugs, increasing overdose risk and severe health damage.
