Health committee  To answer your first question a little more, it is difficult for us in law enforcement, or anybody sitting at this table here, to determine exactly which drug is the most abused because the drug that we know is the one we see, but the one being abused is the one we don't see. It's the one in all our medicine cabinets.

Health committee  Yes. As I was saying, the drug of abuse is going to be the one that we have in our cabinets so it could go from oxy that we have discussed, which has been seized in larger amounts, to fentanyl, which we've been seeing a lot, but there are others...bio-diazepam. A million other drugs are going to be abused, that are known through the Internet, that are known in a mixture of two tablets.

Health committee  With regard to prevention, I have been a member of several groups whose purpose was to inform and help other first responders, that is to say police officers, firemen and paramedics, so as to increase their awareness regarding certain substances. The misuse of prescription drugs is a relatively recent phenomenon.

Health committee  Thank you. The process on the street depends a lot on the officer's situation. Obviously, it's difficult, with your scenario, to give you a precise answer. A bag with miscellaneous pills would usually be seized or some phone calls would be made to doctors or pharmacists to confirm the person's identity as well as details of the prescription such as dosage and quantities.
