Public Health Scotland has published a new information sheet on ketamine. It says availability and use have increased in the UK, particularly among young people.

It also warns that ketamine can cause harm even at low doses. Using it often can affect the bladder. This can mean pain, needing to wee often, or blood in your urine. Some people don’t realise ketamine is the cause and have repeated treatment for urine infections.

If you or someone you know uses ketamine, we’re here. We can offer non-judgemental advice and help to cut down safely. Go to the links in the comments.

As the seasons change, so can we. 🍂

Shorter days, darker evenings, colder weather and changes to our routine. It can be a lot, especially if you’re already finding things challenging.

As autumn arrives, remember to be kind to yourself. If you can, try getting outside when it’s light out, keeping connected with people around you, and making time for the things important to you.

If you’re struggling, you don’t have to face it alone. Reach out to us when you need it.

Today we learned that 1,133 lives in Scotland were lost to drugs last year, up 11% year on year. As our chart shows, this isn't a one-off, it's part of a hugely concerning decade-long pattern. Sons, daughters, parents, friends, our thoughts are with every family who has lost someone.

Our National Harm Reduction Lead, Gareth Balmer, has written about why this keeps happening and what needs to change. It's not just about the drugs themselves. Poverty, trauma and a failing safety net all play their part, and people need real support to reach them at the right time, backed by long-term planning and investment.

Read Gareth's full piece in the comments.

New synthetic drugs are making an already dangerous drug supply even harder to predict, and it's something we're seeing right across Scotland.

Our National Harm Reduction Lead, Gareth Balmer, spoke to the BBC about what's changing, and why naloxone, which can reverse an opioid overdose, needs to be in as many hands as possible, not just services.

Harm reduction is a practical, evidence-based approach that protects health and saves lives.

It meets people where they are, reduces immediate risks and creates opportunities to access support.

Harm reduction does not sit apart from treatment or recovery. It should be at the heart of Scotland’s response to drug-related harm, alongside accessible treatment, recovery and wider support.

Around the world, evidence-based harm reduction approaches are saving lives.

Scotland must learn from what works, follow the evidence and put it into action.

Stop The Deaths.Follow The Evidence.This year, our Stop The Deaths initiative calls for harm reduction to be expanded, accelerated and protected. Around the world, evidence-based harm reduction is saving lives. Scotland must learn from what works and act on the evidence – implementing proven inte...
