Last month, the Special Commission on the Public Health Effects of Xylazine submitted its final report to the Legislature. I was honored to co-chair this Commission alongside my colleague Senator John Velis. I want to thank my fellow Commissioners, committee staff and Sen. Velis' team for their engagement and contributions to the Commission's work.

Xylazine is a veterinary drug used as a sedative for animals but is not approved by the FDA for use in humans. Xylazine has been increasingly found in the nation’s illicit opioid supply, most often mixed with fentanyl and sometimes referred to as “tranq” or “tranq dope.” This report is the product of months of review, expert testimony, and collaboration between Commissioners to examine the rise of xylazine as an adulterant in the Commonwealth’s illicit drug supply.

The Commission developed findings and recommendations to address the presence of xylazine and other contaminants in the drug supply, including exposure and wound care needs, long‑term health outcomes, appropriate overdose responses, and challenges for emergency responders and frontline providers. The final report outlines a comprehensive set of recommendations which you can read here: https://malegislature.gov/Bills/194/HD6001
